Volunteer

Come and join us at a Wellness Walk as a volunteer. It's a fun and fulfilling experience without walking the miles.

General Event Volunteer

Volunteers who are based at the event site can take on a variety of different roles and work in morning or afternoon shifts, including:

  • Answering walkers’ questions and directing around the site
  • Handing out t-shirts and event packs at the registration tent
  • Cheering our walkers back into the Finisher’s Area
  • Handing out medals

Route Marshal

Route volunteers guide walkers accurately and keep enthusiasm high. Volunteers in these roles will be positioned at key points on the walk route and will:

  • Ensure walkers are heading in the right direction
  • Motivate and cheer people on as they walk past your position
  • Hand out hypo snacks, plasters or report medical incidents
  • Monitor and report back to the route manager
