Upton-upon-Severn in Worcestershire hosts several weekend long festivals each and every year. Blues, folk, jazz, rock and pop are the main festivals over the summer with tens of thousands of people attending over each weekend. As part of these festivals teams of Festival Angels offer a safe place drop-in cafe at Upton Baptist Church (and at some on the festival campsite) and detached teams who wander round the various venues to chat, help, listen and care for the festival goers. Volunteers are needed over several summer weekends to support the local team to show that Jesus Loves the Upton-upon-Severn Festivals!
