Volunteers for our Flagship event StarRun

St Piers (in Lingfield) provides education and care for children and young adults with complex needs, including epilepsy and other neurological conditions.

Our events are vital for raising awareness, building community, and creating unforgettable experiences for our students.

Your time and energy will help us deliver an event that truly matters.

Every year we run out our flagship event the "colour StarRun".

On the 4th July 2026 we will be running this event again and will be asking for volunteers to help with the following roles:

• Assist with event setup and pack down (tables, chairs, signage, decorations).
• Welcoming and supporting guests.
• Car park marshalling.
• Marshalling runners.
• Manning merchandise stalls and ticket sales.
• Share information about St Piers’ mission and encourage future involvement.
• Provide general event support, stepping in where needed to keep things running smoothly.

What skills do I need?

Lots of enthusiasm.

Good interpersonal skills: you will be talking to some of our incredible supporters’ friends and family as well as the St Piers team and wider Young Epilepsy team.

Endurance as the days can be quite long, and we have no control over the weather.

It can be cold and wet or extremely hot – this is the UK!
