The Children's Mutual Tunbridge Wells Half Marathon
Route Marshalls needed
What will volunteers do?
· Where possible, volunteers will be doubled up with others who've done it before, but may be on their own - but in sight of another marshal.
· You will be fully briefed.
· You will need to be fit and able as the position may require moving a sign and cones and 18yrs minimum.
· You will be provided with a reflective bib which they will need to wear.
· All volunteers will be told where to report to and when.
· Volunteers may be required to speak to motorists explaining about the road closures and inform them how long the road will be closed and alternative routes. All this information will be given to you.
· Volunteers will help to encourage runners and may be required to give them instruction (ie stay on the left) etc, and will also need to bring a mobile phone in case of emergency.
· You need to be assertive and have good initiative and judgment.
All volunteers will be well briefed and given support in taking up this role.
All volunteers assisting will receive a goodie bag from Sainsburys and a week pass to LA Fitness in Tunbridge Wells.
