Macmillan Cancer Support - Sheffield Half Marathon Volunteers
If Macmillan are unable to provide volunteers for the Sheffield Half Marathon, they would not be able to have so many runners taking part and would not be able to raise such a fantastic amount of money to help people living with cancer.

Macmillan Cancer SupportMacmillan are looking for volunteers to help marshal the Sheffield Half Marathon course, and to support the 100+ runners taking part for Macmillan. As an event marshal you are helping raise awareness and over £28,000 to help people living with cancer.
This is a great race that many Goodgymers have completed in the past, and there are likely to be some running this year so it is a great opportunity to help make this event happen and cheer on some fellow runners at the same time.
We all meet together on the morning of the task and receive a briefing from the event organiser, before donning Macmillan green (as well as GoodGym red) and getting into marshal positions to cheer on the runners. The exact time and meeting point will be confirmed approx 1 week before the task. A Macmillan contact will also be present at the event to meet and greet any volunteers.
Macmillan have to confirm with the event organiser 3 weeks before with the number of volunteers available, hence the sign up deadline.
I'll let you know any more details as I get them :-)
