Edinburgh Parkrun Event Volunteer

Edinburgh Parkrun is a free, weekly 5km run and walk held on Saturday mornings along the seafront promenade at Cramond. The volunteering role supports the event and helps make it possible for everyone who wants to take part, whether they are walking, jogging, running, volunteering or spectating.

There are a range of volunteer roles available, and the event is entirely volunteer-run. Volunteers are welcome for a single session or on a regular basis, and the role is described as flexible and ad hoc.

Training or a short briefing is given at the start of each volunteering session, so no specific experience is needed.

Volunteers typically arrive on Saturday morning from about 9am to 11am. The venue is accessible to wheelchair users, though there is no disabled toilet. The opportunity is based at Cramond / Silverknowes in Edinburgh, and the organisation says it welcomes new volunteers and can discuss individual needs.
