GET INVOLVED
Looking to try something new or build your skills?
Join #TeamAppetite!
Our #TeamAppetite family are at the heart of everything we do, volunteering their time, ideas and enthusiasm in lots of ways, from spreading the word about Appetite in the community and welcoming audiences at events to going on cultural fact-finding missions across the country and helping us decide what is on the programme.
There’s no fixed commitment to volunteering with Appetite – you can get involved as much or as little as you like, in ways that suit your skills, interests and confidence level.
We’re a friendly, inclusive team and we’ll support you if you’d like to try something different or develop your experience.

WORKING WITH GROUPS
Access and inclusion for all is a core principle of Appetite, though we know that participating in the arts and attending events can be harder for some people.
That’s why Appetite works with local community groups to understand what barriers their members face, and how best to create a programme that not only welcomes them, but weaves their viewpoint into the fabric of what we do at every stage.
