Challenge Event Volunteering
Volunteering at a challenge event is a fun and rewarding day out; it’s a great way to experience the fantastic atmosphere and be part of a brilliant team by marshalling, cheering or helping at the event village or as a massage therapist.

Volunteer Ambassadors
Ambassadors are a positive voice for Candlelighters. They help raise awareness and encourage people to support our work through speeches and presentations, cheque presentations and occasionally stalls.

Candlelighters Parent/Guardian Trustee Role Profile
The Trustee Board is made up of parents, medical and clinical staff and business individuals, each one bringing their own unique skills. We are now recruiting a new Parent Trustee with relevant lived experience of a child going through cancer or a bereaved to join the Trustee Board.

Volunteer Events Sports Massage Therapist
We have an amazing team of runners taking part in various events to raise money for Candlelighters. The massage therapist would be based in our charity village tent and help to treat and advise our runners and make them feel appreciated after completing their amazing challenges
