Volunteer for Welfare!
Whilst we wait for ConFuzzled to return, we still must ensure we have all the help we need! So, recruitment and volunteering continue!

Do you like the idea of making Confuzzled safer and friendlier for everyone? Have a spare hour or two between events you’re attending? Why not consider volunteering for Welfare?
Welfare is one of several front-of-house departments at the convention. It is a joint department with two key parts: Security and Medical. Security, in particular, are often the first thing many attendees see when they need any type of help. If you have attended ConFuzzled before, you’ve probably seen us around.
The Security side of Welfare concerns itself mainly with the safety of our attendees, queue management and access of events, and ensuring protection of property. As a volunteer for this department, most of your role would be assisting attendees, helping them find their way or answer questions, or direct them to the right person.
As a volunteer, you would not be expected to deal with security incidents. Our welfare team have a varied mix of staff with appropriate training to handle a range of different situations. This includes first aid training, SIA accreditations, and experience from professional work.
Don’t have any of these badges or job experience yourself? No problem! These are useful things, but not required to volunteer. All you need is a good head on your shoulders and a willingness to help others. And we’ll help you with the rest as you will be shadowing an experienced team member at the start.
Like all the departments at ConFuzzled, we’re all part of the fandom, and no matter our role, we too are all volunteers. So, give it a go, we would love to have you join us!
