Volunteers Wanted for Heathfield’s Biggest Event ✨
As Volunteers’ Week takes place across the UK, we want to give a big thank you to all the volunteers throughout Wealden.
With many local, charity‑led organisations managing our attractions, events and even our natural environments, it’s more important than ever to recognise that Wealden couldn’t be ‘explored’ without the day‑to‑day care and support of these wonderful volunteers.
One such event is Le Marché: Heathfield’s beloved August Bank Holiday celebration. A much‑loved annual tradition for nearly 30 years, it’s a day of French‑inspired markets, entertainment, food, music and uplifting community spirit.
What many people may not realise is that the event is entirely volunteer‑led, run by a dedicated committee of local people.
So, whether you’re a Heathfield local, a fellow Wealdener (we’re going with it 😄), or someone from further afield, could you help support this fantastic event? They’re looking for enthusiastic volunteers to help with marketing, sponsorship, logistics or general support.
There’s no set time commitment – even the smallest amount of time can make a real difference.
