Volunteer Kilties-Aberdeen Kiltwalk 2024

Sign up now to volunteer at the exciting Aberdeen Kiltwalk 2024!

Join our fantastic team of Kiltie volunteers and help support thousands of walkers as they take on Scotland’s ultimate walking challenge and fundraise for a charity close to their heart.

Aberdeen Kiltwalk takes place on Sunday 2nd June 2024 with the wonderful Aberdeen Duthie Park the starting point and ending in the glorious Bellfield Park, Banchory, with a selection of roles to choose from at either venue/any stage of the Kiltwalk. There really is something for everyone! You could volunteer seeing our walkers off at the start line, welcome them across the finish line or help them recharge at one of our Pit Stops. You can also provide support on the route by cheering and directing walkers. You can do this on foot, by cycling or by driving – we have options to suit all.


Kiltwalk is Scotland’s largest mass participation walking event with over 145,000 people taking part since 2016. The kind-hearted Kiltwalk community have taken big strides for charities close to their hearts and together with The Hunter Foundation, have managed to raise a staggering £42.5 million to date. All funds raised have been distributed to 3,330 Scottish Charities.


Our walkers rely on the encouragement and motivation they receive from our volunteers and many report that this is what ultimately gets them across the finish line. Be part of a feel-good event, soak up the Kiltwalk atmosphere and meet like-minded people. You’ll also have the opportunity to develop new skills and gain valuable experience in the events industry. It truly is a rewarding day!


All Kiltie Volunteers receive training and support to carry out their assigned roles and are kitted out in bright blue Kiltie uniforms provided by Official Kit Partners, Trespass. Volunteers can claim travel support of up to £15 as well.


If you would like to learn new skills, meet new people and have a truly rewarding experience, then apply to be a Kiltie Volunteer with us.
