Event support volunteer – Pink Ribbon Walk

About this event

Come and join the team at one of our Pink Ribbon Walks! We need friendly, enthusiastic volunteers to help welcome our walkers, support them out on the route, and cheer them across the finish line.

Volunteering details

We’re expecting hundreds of walkers to take part across our 10 and 20 mile Pink Ribbon Walks. You’ll be part of the 100-strong support team on the day, helping to make sure they have a safe, fun experience while they raise funds for our world-class research and life-changing support.

What will I be doing?

· From welcoming and registering our walkers in the event village, to running a snack station on the route, to cheering and handing out medals at the finish line - there’s a role for everyone at a Pink Ribbon Walk!
· You’ll be that friendly face, making sure our walkers get the support and encouragement they need, when they need it.


What do I get out of it?


· Fun! You’ll have a great time when you join the Pink Ribbon Walk community.
· You’ll meet new people from a wide range of backgrounds and experiences.
· You’ll use your communication and teamwork skills to help support a major fundraising event.


What skills or qualities do I need?


· Bags of enthusiasm!
· Able to quickly connect with and uplift people.
· Happy to work as part of a team or independently.
· Flexibility - We need you to be available between 7am and 6.30pm, but we don’t expect you to volunteer all day!


How will you support me?


· You’ll get an info pack well in advance, to help you plan for your big day!
· You’ll get a full briefing from the staff team on the day.
· You’ll get a free hot meal (and breakfast if you start early).
