Kids Run Free is a charity which aims to promote an active, healthy and happy lifestyle for children.
Volunteering Opportunities
Kids Run Free believe children need to be encouraged to regularly take part in outdoors activities, so their events are designed to get kids up and running from an early age. They host regular, free, running events for children of all ages, in organised local environments. There are a variety of roles and you can have a go at any that you feel comfortable with. They are not expecting anyone to volunteer week in/week out.
Kids Run Free races take place monthly at each of their locations. There is a team responsible for each event, consisting of a Race Director and his/her helpers.
