Description
Enjoy the party atmosphere and make some noise for our runners at the London Marathon on Sunday 27 April.
We’re expecting 275 runners to take part in this year’s London Marathon, to help raise vital funds for our life-saving research and life-changing care. And you could be there, cheering them on and giving them the encouragement they need to get across the finish line.
Duties
As a volunteer, you could help by:
- Making lots of noise at one of our cheer points, so ours are the loudest and liveliest
- Being there for our runners, with high-fives, hugs, and a happy face
- Giving words of encouragement to help our runners power-through to the finish line
What skills or qualities do I need?
- Bags of enthusiasm!
- The confidence to cheer, shout and make lots of noise.
- Able to quickly connect with and uplift people.
Who will the volunteers be working with?
