Volunteer to support #TeamStroke in this year’s Resolution Run series, meet new people and help us rebuild lives together.

We’re looking for volunteers to fill a number of roles, from cheering on our amazing participants and making lots of noise as they make their way around the course to being a marshal who will safely direct participants around the course to get them across the finish line, or helping to register these fantastic people before the run starts.

All the roles are equally as important and we would really struggle to put on these events without you.

Why join #TeamStroke?

There are over 1.2 million stroke survivors in the UK and more than 100,000 strokes in the UK each year - that's one stroke every five minutes. With your support, we can provide peer-to-peer support to stroke survivors, provide vital services, campaign for better stroke care and fund research to find better treatments.

By volunteering with us, you can change the lives of those affected by stroke, and it could change your life too. You will gain a rewarding experience in supporting the UK's leading stroke charity.

On the day you will have the full support of the events team including a full briefing from the Event Manager which will also be sent out to you in advance.

Volunteers under 18 will require parental/carer consent and will need to be supervised by a parent/carer.

About Us

Stroke Association. Rebuilding lives after stroke.

When stroke strikes, part of your brain shuts down. And so does a part of you. That’s because a stroke happens in the brain, the control centre for who we are and what we can do. It happens every five minutes in the UK and changes lives instantly. Recovery is tough, but with the right specialist support and a ton of courage and determination, the brain can adapt.

We believe everyone deserves to live the best life they can after stroke. And it’s a team effort to get there.

We provide specialist support, fund critical research and campaign to make sure people affected by stroke get the very best care and support to rebuild their lives.

Every five minutes, stroke destroys lives. Help us rebuild them and join our team.

Do you want to see peoples lives transformed by God bringing healing and hope? We have come together from different backgrounds and Christian denominations to welcome people to a safe place where they can receive prayer, healing, teaching and find rest and friendship. Our resident community along with the wider team provide hospitality seeking to grow in our own walk with God and encourage others to do the same. Our Christian retreat, conference and holiday centre is a 20 minute walk from 13 miles of sandy beaches on the Dorset South Coast.

How can you help us achieve our vision of 'Growing Christian Disciples'? Although words are important what so often speaks to our guests is our love and service. They see Jesus through our acts of service and willingness to put others before ourselves. We seek to build a sense of community where people feel they are coming into our family and our home. Our resident community are an essential part of that welcome, that sense of family.

What sort of person are we looking for? Someone who above all else wants to grow in their own faith and help others to do the same. You need to have a sense of calling to be here – ie a sense that this is where God wants you at this time. You are joining a community and need to be committed to meeting and seeking God as a community and wider team. You will need to be willing to serve and help out wherever needed although we do seek to place people on the teams they are most suited to, not just where there is a need.

What do we ask of you? We ask for 30 hours service each week. Often this involves housekeeping, washing up, laying tables, serving at meal times, spending time with guests, helping welcome guests or covering reception. It may also involve helping in the gardens or painting. You will expected to join in with times of prayer and worship together as a community and spend time on your own regularly praying and reading the Bible.

What do we offer you? We offer a supportive and prayerful environment and if you feel it would be helpful, coaching or mentoring. We offer times of worship and prayer as a team and resident community. Accommodation, meals and expenses are provided. You will have two days off a week and additional time off for holidays. This is an ideal ‘time out’ to give you time to reflect on where God may be leading you next and how he may want you to grow.

How long can I come for? We ask that people come for a minimum of 3 months as it takes time to settle in. We would normally suggest a maximum of one year initially with the possibility of extending this where appropriate.

We are looking for volunteers who have experience of running a retreat or conference centre and have the confidence to oversee the site for a few days at a time. You need a passion for hospitality and desire for yourself, our team and guests to grow in their Christian faith. You are joining a community and need to be committed to meeting and seeking God as a community and wider team even if its for a few days. You will need to be willing to serve and help out wherever needed and support other team members.

What do we ask of you? It will involve coming for a minimum of 2 days at a time. You would need to welcome and host our guests, serving at mealtimes and dealing with any issues that arise. You would need to ensure both the operational side and spiritual ministry of centre work effectively and be willing to help out wherever needed. It will involve locking up in the evening and being on-call overnight.

What do we offer you?Accommodation, meals and reasonable travel expenses are provided.
