Are you a dedicated and organised person, passionate about helping others? Join our night-time party and hundreds of other Volunteers at The MoonWalk London on Saturday 18th May 2024 from Clapham Common! Bring your energy and enthusiasm and help us make a difference, by supporting the thousands of Walkers get through the night and raise millions for breast cancer patients and research!
We recruit hundreds of Volunteers to make The MoonWalk a safe and enjoyable event; looking after our Walkers as they take to the streets of London overnight, and above all giving them the encouragement they need to complete their epic challenge.
Join in the party atmosphere in MoonWalk City on Saturday Evening, with help needed from around 6 PM through till midnight. A busy period when our Walkers and Volunteers arrive en masse, from litter picking, to registering baggage, to handing out Volunteer uniforms or help managing the queues of excited Walkers, there is so much to get involved in!
The Night-Time is where the challenge really gets going for our amazing Walkers. If you like the nightlife, marshalling, or giving out water whilst surrounded by London’s famous landmarks, this could be for you! Start times vary between 8 PM and midnight, depending on your role, and last on average 8 hours. We can also offer site-based roles at MoonWalk City throughout the night. Early finishes can of course be requested.
Finally, the early morning team take the helm on Sunday Morning, starting between 5-6 AM until midday. Watching the sunrise against a London skyline is quite a sight to see! This truly is the most testing time for our Walkers… whether you join the route or MoonWalk City teams… your kind and motivating words could be all that is needed to get someone across that finish line!
On the night you will be provided with training, a t-shirt, cap and free light refreshments. All roles will develop teamwork and confidence, no matter what you do on the night… so why not bring your friends and family along to share this unique experience!
