Events Volunteer (Walk the Loch 2025)

Chest Heart and Stroke are Scotland’s largest health charity working to help people with chest and heart conditions, stroke and Long Covid live life to the full. Many people living with these conditions experience fear, isolation and loneliness, and struggle to cope with the impact of their health condition on their everyday lives.

Their Fundraising Heroes fight back against loneliness, stop fear in its tracks and keep people alive for longer – all while having fun at the same time!

Volunteering at our events is a great way to meet new people, boost confidence and have fun.


Join their fabulous team of Fundraising Heroes and learn new skills, make great friends, and make a real difference to people in Scotland who are isolated, scared, or anxious about their condition. Tasks could include marshalling, participant registration, car lark stewarding, cheering, and more
