About the Event
The Social Enterprise Day Showcase is a celebration of the innovation, creativity, and impact of Norfolk’s social enterprises. Hosted by FUSE Network in collaboration with Norwich Unity Hub, the event will bring together local social enterprises, community members, partners, and funders for a day of connection, collaboration, and inspiration.
Volunteer Role
We’re looking for enthusiastic and friendly volunteers to help us make the Showcase a success. Volunteers will play an important role in creating a welcoming atmosphere and ensuring the event runs smoothly for everyone involved.

- Welcoming guests: Greeting attendees on arrival and making sure they feel comfortable and included.
- Directing people around the building: Helping attendees find stalls, workshops, toilets, and key event spaces.
- Supporting stallholders and speakers: Offering assistance where needed (e.g. carrying materials, answering questions).
- General event support: Chatting to guests, signposting to the right people, and being on hand to solve small issues as they arise.
What we’re looking for
- Friendly and approachable, with good communication skills.
- Reliable and happy to be part of a team.
- Comfortable being on your feet and moving around a busy venue.
- An interest in social enterprise, community, or local impact (helpful but not essential!).

- Being part of a positive, inspiring day showcasing the best of Norfolk’s social enterprise community.
