Helper information

IMPORTANT DOCUMENTS FOR HELPERS: All Helpers should read the Helpers Handbook and the Safeguarding Guidance. Find them both HERE

Anyone aged 12 years or older is invited to help at Lighthouse. Whether you can spare an hour, a day or the whole week, we can find a role for you. If you have any questions, please first read our FAQs below before contacting the Helpers Registration Team.

Children at Lighthouse are split into age groups. The 4s and 5s meet in "The Ark", the 6s, 7s, 8s, 9s and 10s are in the Lighthouse Tent. 

The 11s - "Illuminate" - are helpers-in-training, and meet in their own tent.

Within each age group, the children are split into groups - Lighthouses. Each Lighthouse has a leader (the Lighthouse Keeper) and 2 or more assistant helpers (Lamplighters).

During the day, the children take part in activities such as craft, drama, games and Christian teaching. Each of these activities are led by different helpers.

Below is a summary of some of the roles available at Lighthouse. If you would like to discuss any of the roles, please contact our Helpers Registration Team who would be happy to help.
