Volunteering at a HACK event

We have lots of opportunities for you to volunteer your time on the day of the HACK to help us create the best experience for our walkers. These walks are only possible because of the support that we receive from volunteers.

You can help make our events memorable for our walkers, raise the profile of the NSPCC and, best of all, help us raise money for our work with children.

What it involves

Volunteering at a HACK involves:

  • Meeting and greeting participants
  • Putting up signage along the route
  • Marshalling the route - keeping our walkers safe
  • Cheering walkers
  • Helping to set up the check points

Sign up to volunteer

Sign up as a volunteer at one of our six HACK events across the UK. Please kindly note you must be 18 years and over to volunteer.
