If walking 13 miles in the dark is just not for you, then we will need masses of volunteers.  In 2009 we had over 150 volunteers and obviously with more walkers we will need lots more help. The evening has a tremendous buzz about it and this is a wonderful way to be part of our biggest individual fundraiser of the year

We need for the volunteers to commit to the whole night (though actually there is a  need for some help during the day and early in the night). In case you feel you couldn’t ‘keep going all night’ it may help to know that the first year’s volunteers all told us how much they enjoyed themselves and almost all of those who volunteered to do the first half shift stayed on all night anyway because they wanted to be a part of the atmosphere (plus they could smell the bacon cooking and who can walk away from that!)

We will need help with Registration, stewarding, administration, refreshments, car parking and driving of support vehicles - plus dozens of other very varied jobs that will spring up on the night. 

The organisation and administration of such a major event is quite demanding and to ensure it runs smoothly we need to know that all our volunteers are well informed for their duties on the night.  To this end we plan to hold an evening prior to the Walk, at Reaseheath, where we can allocate jobs, instructions and directions. We will also be able to kit you out in tee-shirts and, if appropriate, fluorescent jackets.  The evening will give you a chance to ask any questions, and it will help you to see where you will need to be in daylight hours.  For stewards it gives you time to familiarise yourself with your spot on the route.  The meeting will be kept as brief as possible and we may even be able to find the odd glass of wine or bottle of beer to make it all more bearable!
