Could you be a Maggie's event volunteer?
It's not just the people taking part in our events who are helping those affected by cancer - YOU can too!
We hold many different fundraising events during the year and are always looking for volunteers to help us out either as marshals, helping to hand out tea, or being part of the cheering squad.
We ensure that all our event participants really enjoy Maggie's events and feel 100% supported and looked after at all times. Our volunteers are a vital part in making this happen and have important roles to play in the success of our events.
By volunteering for Maggie's you will meet new friends, learn new skills, use exisiting skills, and be part of the Maggie's team. By donating your time and energy you you will be directly helping us to help those facing a life beyond cancer.
