Summary

Join us at Bath Half marathon to support over 10,000 runners as they take to the streets. Lots of volunteering roles available, volunteers aged 12+ welcome!

Detailed description

You don’t need any special skills to volunteer at a half marathon - just bring plenty of enthusiasm! There are a whole range of different roles available on race day, with something to suit everyone including:

  • Support the Runners Bag Drop marquees in the Event Village in Royal Victoria Park and chat to runners pre and post-race
  • Hand out t-shirts, water and medals while congratulating runners at the Finish Line on Royal Avenue
  • Be a Course Marshal along the route and direct and cheer on runners
  • Help give out water or energy gels at one of the water points along the route

The Bath Half volunteers are a friendly and welcoming bunch. We'll meet at the Volunteer Welcome Marquee early on event day to sign in, collect kit and most importantly have a hot drink and meet the other volunteers. Your supervisor will then give you a full information briefing, before you head off to your event area.

All volunteers receive an exclusive volunteers branded t-shirt, a lunch pack and on the day support from a supervisor. You'll meet lots of great people - some of our volunteers have been with us for 10 years and more!

Volunteering is a great way to have fun, make friends, enhance your CV and experience the electric atmosphere of race day. So if you want to have a great day out and find out what mass running races are all about, then why not join us?!

PLEASE NOTE: The minimum age for individual volunteers is 12 and you'll need to be accompanied by an adult. Please contact us if you are aged 12 -17 and would like to get involved so we can tell you more.

If you are part of a local community or youth group that might be interested in volunteering, we would love to hear from you. We have previously been supported by the police youth volunteers, armed forces cadet groups and scouts as well as social running groups and many more.

We also offer corporate volunteering days. If your business has corporate social responsibility goals or would like to enjoy a team building day out of the office, please get in touch.
