Wilbur Lends a Paw

A great festival like Greenbelt wouldn't happen without a lot of help. As it says on the Greenbelt website Volunteers make Greenbelt a living Festival. Without them Greenbelt could not exist. Apparently there are over 1500 of them working across the festival weekend and throughout the year giving their help for free.

This year their number was increased by one by our good friend T5 Wilbur (which is why you haven't seen him on the blog so far) who was in seventh heaven in his Hi-Vis jacket working all over the site stewarding at various venues.


He told us that his favourite duty was working in the Performance Cafe tent where you could hear a variety of excellent live music. Here we are with Wilbur during one of his breaks at the Performance Cafe, when we joined him for a cup of tea and slice of carrot cake while listing to one of our Greenbelt favorites Esther Alexander.

Not only was the carrot cake fantastic, but as the icing on the cake, Esther sung a great set, which included our favourite song "Last of the hopeless romantics".

Tea and music over, we left Wilbur to his stewarding, and agreed to meet him for a well earned pint at the Organic Beer tent later in the day.
