I’ve long since supported Cancer Research UK with monthly donations and I have in the past volunteered with them, though it never actually came together as the events were either fully staffed already or at times when I couldn’t make it.
A few months ago @chelthan told me that she was taking part in the Race for Life in Oxford which got me interested again. I knew that I wouldn’t be able to find enough people to sponsor me for the race itself so decided to take another look at volunteering.
There are three Reading events this weekend:
- Sat 17 July 2010, 11:00 – 5km
- Sat 17 July 2010, 15:30 – 5km
- Sun 18 July 2010, 11:00 – 5km
More info on this flyer.
I will be part of the admin team responsible for the sign-up and allocation of numbers for all three events which, judging by the weather forecast, most likely means sitting underneath a flimsy tent in the rain hoping that the wind won’t blow it away. Yet strangely I’m also looking forward to it.
Are you going to be there?
