Lend a hand at Mowbray Park junior parkrun

Come and support a great junior parkrun in Sunderland! Nearest parking right next to Mowbray Park is on Burdon Road and Toward Road. Free parking slightly further away on Laura Street. The start/finish area is short walk from Sunderland train and Metro station, a little further from Park Lane Metro station and Sunderland Interchange. Meet at the John Candlish statue in the centre of Mowbray Park around 8:45am.

GoodGym is not affiliated with parkrun, so you must email the event team or leave a comment on one of their volunteer request Facebook posts to volunteer, choosing a role from the roster for April 28th (take a look here: https://www.parkrun.org.uk/mowbraypark-juniors/futureroster/ ). The email address is mowbrayparkjuniors@parkrun.com and the Facebook page is https://www.facebook.com/mowbrayparkjuniorparkrun . You can also put a comment in the GoodGym Newcastle WhatsApp group to request to volunteer if it is easier, which will be picked up by the community mission leader. There are a wide variety of volunteer roles such as marshal, timekeeper, barcode scanner, handing out finish tokens and tail walking. Junior parkrun events even need a warm up leader!

Volunteering at junior parkrun is easy, fun and doesn't take long. It's a great start to a Sunday! Come and help a fairly new event continue to flourish! Join most of the volunteers afterwards for a hot drink and breakfast in Greggs on Fawcett Street.
