Events Volunteer - Forth Bridge Abseil 2024

Volunteering details

Chest Heart & Stroke Scotland's Forth Bridge Abseil in June was so successful we are back for another!

Join us as a volunteer at this iconic event on Sunday 13th October 2024 and help people across Scotland live life to the full!

To date, our Fundraising Heroes have raised over £3 million for great causes across Scotland by taking part in this truly inspiring event. Every penny raised for Chest Heart & Stroke Scotland goes towards helping people do more than survive when they return home from hospital with a chest, heart or stroke condition – it helps them really live.


We are looking for volunteers to help our Fundraising team ensure this year's event is a success. Various volunteering roles and time slots are available. If you have an enthusiasm for fundraising, like being part of a team, and want to make a real difference to people with our conditions, we'd love to hear from you!


Experience required

No skills or experience are needed as full role induction will be provided on the day of the event.

This role would suit someone who enjoys engaging with people and is able to volunteer as part of a team.
