Working as a CAT at Leeds 2014 has been totally amazing having been to lots of festivals this was my first time volunteering and I've had the time of my life. The set up is spot on and the Hotbox family, yes it is a family, welcome you to join them. You make so many friends, I was on my own but within an hour all that was forgotten and a great time on and off shift was had. You feel safe and nothing is too much for the Hotbox staff the other staff on site you gett respect and you gain so much confidence from the experience its really amazing. I for one can't wait for 2015 I have found my festival family!!!
