Aberdeen Kiltwalk - Drivers Needed!

Volunteering details

Kiltwalk are looking for driver volunteers for the Aberdeen Kiltwalk on Sunday 1st June!

Join our fantastic Kiltie team and help support thousands of walkers as they take on the Aberdeen Kiltwalk and fundraise for a charity close to their heart. Our walkers will walk 18 miles from Bellfield Park, Banchory or 4 miles from Cults Academy finishing at the Kiltwalk Village within Duthie Park.

As a Driver Kiltie, you will be paired with another volunteer and assigned a 9-seater van to help with transporting walkers, fellow Kilties and equipment as required. You may also be asked to assist with sandwich distribution and to help out at our Start Sites and Pit Stops during quieter periods.


All Driver Kilties must be over the age of 25 and have a full UK driving licence.


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 will also have the opportunity to develop new skills and gain valuable experience in the events industry. It truly is a rewarding day!


Kiltwalk is Scotland’s largest mass participation walking event with over 178,000 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 £49.5 million to date. All funds raised have been distributed to 3,700 Scottish Charities.
