VOLUNTEER Newsletter 22

Hi all

Business has been picking up after a slow Summer! October has been a good Month and November looks to match it! It is encouraging that we are getting a lot more ‘walk-ins,’ so even if it does not look busy on the ActOne website things could well be different at the Cinema.

So two things...

1. Please please sign upon RotaCentral, it saves FOH staff time as they often have to ask for help on Rapid Response

2. Come down for your shift anyway unless there has been a specific message (on Rapid Response) not to.

 

New Programmers for ActOne films

ActOne has been programmed by the Independent Cinema Oiffice since mid- October and you may have noticed the increased number of films over half term. It does mean that we get to know what films are showing two weeks on advance, so we now have the usual A4 print out of the Current week and one for following, ‘Next’ week. There will be a copy on the Volunteer desk.

​

Events at ActOne
Please keep a look out on Rota Central for extra shifts, Oscar will put them in when needed:

​

• For example; on Saturday there is a Birthday (cake ) party in the lounge following a screening of Paddington then there is the Jazz night in the Lounge.

• Ealing Film Festival on November 26th looks to be busy with two tranches of Short films with and Award Ceremony afterwards.

• We also have a regular programme of non-film events such as Open Mic, Jazz Night and Comedy Evening.

​

New Volunteers and Social Media

We are always keen to have new volunteers so please keep a look out!  Please get anyone interested to email Amanda: amanda@actonecinema.co.uk or give them one of the small cards or flyers that we have on our desk.

And.. another reminder to encourage people to leave reviews on google if they have enjoyed their Actone cinema experience. https://g.page/r/CRWdQxjLgx8xEB0/review
 

Thank you for your continued support and enjoy the Festive Season!
