London Marathon fun!
Take part without breaking a sweat! This year's Virgin London Marathon will take place on Sunday 22nd April. Come along on the day and support our team of runners by volunteering at our Mile 25 water station located right in the heart of the capital on Victoria Embankment near Big Ben and opposite the London Eye. Your role will be to hand out much needed water bottles and to cheer the runners on to reach the finish line.
Watch this space for more details about how you can join the 2012 water station team!
From time to time our Sports team may have other volunteering opportunities at our pan-London sports events. Please view the annual sports calendar here and contact Zoe Mellis on 020 7549 8800 or at zoe.mellis@londonyouth.org.uk to find out more.
