Organisation Description: Sands is the UK’s leading pregnancy and baby loss charity. We are here to support everyone touched by pregnancy loss or the death of a baby. Always.
Description of role: Volunteer at our Ribbon Run event this October in Manchester. Join us as we come together for our Ribbon Run, a multi distance running event, where people are fundraising to save babies lives. Our Ribbon Run is made possible by the care and commitment of our volunteers. Your support helps create a safe, welcoming space for everyone taking part, whether they are running in remembrance, in support of loved ones, or as part of our wider community.
There are different ways to get involved. You might be a route marshal, guiding and encouraging runners along the way, or you could support at the starting line, welcoming people at registration, helping at to hand out our race bibs, or assisting with merchandise.
We’ll talk with you ahead of the event to make sure you feel comfortable and supported in your role. We would be so grateful to have you alongside us.
