TEAM WRISTBANDS

Your wristband is your access to the venue. Wembley Arena security will not allow anyone through the doors who does not have a wristband or lanyard. As part of the team, your wristband or lanyard will give you access to the team areas as well as the main arena and foyers. Team requiring backstage access will be given a different coloured wristband. Please do not remove your wristband for the duration of the conference.

If lost, replacement wristbands or lanyards are available at the Box Office at a cost of £25.

Female volunteers will need 2 wristbands – the normal delegate wristband as well as the volunteer wristband. You will not be granted access to the venue as a volunteer if you do not possess 2 wristbands.

PLease Be FLexiBLe

Like any large event, at a colour conference, things are constantly changing. We ask that you are flexible while serving; as we may have to position you somewhere other than you were assigned if a new need arises.

Joining Team

Every year, team serving for the first time at Colour have such a great time that they can’t wait to get involved on a regular team at Church. We promise to do all we can to find the right place for you.

“Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others...” 1 Peter 4:10

To be a part of making church happen and working together to fulfil God’s mission for Hillsong Church London, speak to your team leader today, or contact one of the team leaders listed in the contact section of this website. Alternatively, contact teams@hillsong.co.uk for more information.

IMPORTANT THINGS FOR YOU TO KNOW

Arrival

Please arrive 15 minutes before your call time to make sure you have time to check in and collect your wristband. See Team Information section for team sign in information. If you are unsure of your call time, please contact your team leader. If you’ve signed up to serve, your team leader will be counting on you to be there. We can’t have a successful Conference without each and every one of you.

DRESS CODE

Some teams will be provided with a Colour Conference Volunteer t-shirt to wear. Please only wear the team t-shirt while you are serving. If it’s cold, maybe bring a vest.
HINT - the t-shirt looks great with a pair of jeans. Please make sure to wear comfortable shoes, as you may be standing and walking for much of the time. Please speak to your team leader to confirm your dress code.

BAG DROP

Most teams will be allocated a space where you can drop your bags, have lunch and relax. However, space is limited so please leave large items at home. For security reasons, we cannot accept valuable items here, so please keep them on you or better still leave them at home.

TEAM BREAKS

Your team leader will let you know when’s best to take a break. Lunch will be provided to the boys, but pack a few snacks to help you though out the day. There’s a Costa located in the main foyer, and Grind Coffee Bar located in the main foyer on Level 1 if you need a caffeine kick-start to your day. Mints are always pretty handy to have around too after lunch or dinner!

VIDEO AND CAMERAS

Delegates might want to take some video footage of Colour on their mobiles. This is totally cool, but we want to avoid delegates being a constant distraction. If you think a delegate is causing distraction to others, please inform your team leader. Asking someone to put her camera/phone away can cause conflict, which is something to avoid where possible. As a guide, only photographers on team should be using tripods and long lens cameras.

FIRST AID

Wembley Arena has on-call first-aid personnel to help in an emergency. Visit the information point in the lower foyer or speak to one of the Wembley Arena Stewards and they will happily give you directions. Your team leader will brief you on the Health & Safety details when you arrive.

INTERPRETATION

The interpretation stand will be located in the upper foyer, along the north corridor. Interpretation will be available in German, French, Dutch, Spanish, Hungarian. The Kids programme is in English only.

RESOURCE AND COLOUR MEMORIES

This year resource and Colour memories are in a new location. It is located on level 2. Access is via the stairs on either side of the main foyer. For those with reduced mobility, lift access (should they require it) is available to the left as you enter the main foyer.

LOST PROPERTY

This is located at the Wembley Arena reception desk. Visit the information desk point in the foyer or speak to one of the arena stewards and they will happily give you directions. Wembley will hold onto all lost property for 1 month after Colour. After this, lost property will be given to the Salvation Army.

TOILETS AND CLEANING

Toilets are located at various points around the foyers. The Arena staff will check and clean toilets during the breaks, but let’s help them by being on the lookout for areas that they might have missed. Let’s be conscious about the Arena’s appearance – it’s a direct reflection of everyone and everything we represent. For any big spills, the Arena staff will help us out. If the spill could cause an accident, let’s try and control the flow of delegates away from that area.

BONUS TIPS

• It’s a long day so bring and use extra deodorant. Mints for nice fresh breath are also a great idea.
• Please tell your team leader if you need to leave your position before you do so – it creates confusion when we don’t know where you are.
• A mobile phone going off in a silent crowd can be really distracting. So while we are serving, let¹s keep our phones on silent, or at least be aware of how using them impacts our delegates experience.
• Always be prepared. It’s the small things that usually have the biggest impact. Absolutely nothing is a problem. We serve with a spirit of excellence and with a big smile.

EMERGENCIES

In the unlikely event of an emergency, please follow the instructions of the Arena staff and don’t try to be a hero!

QUESTIONS

Your team leader will be best positioned to answer any questions you may have about serving at Colour. Not sure which team you’ve signed up for? Need to change or cancel when you’re serving? Please speak to your team leader or contact Joe Usher at teams@hillsong.co.uk.

BUMP OUT

Please do not leave the venue on Saturday evening until advised by your team leader. We're ALL responsible for ensuring that the venue is completely packed down and left spotless before we leave. Once you have finished clearing your area, please go to the Bump Out meeting point in the Main Foyer to assist with the rest of bump out. We're all in it together!
