celebrating 40 years 1985-2025
Volunteers
Burnden Road Runners are always in need of volunteers for our events and also support other events in the community, below you will find details on all the volunteering opportunities in the coming year.
The race director team are beginning to look towards 2025 race calendar and the planning of how the club can support local community events along side our annual Trotters race.
With that in mind, we are looking for volunteers to help with the events below.
We need around 20 volunteers to ensure the course is safe for runners and cyclist alike. I know that we have asked for your help a number of times over the past couple of months but it would be amazing if you could spare a little time to support us with this.
Details of the event are:
Date: Saturday 24 May 2025
Time: Marshal meeting: 8:00 (final time tbc)
Race starts: 9:00
Race ends: 12:00 (approx)
