Volunteer at the Plymouth Harbour Runs and Join the Devon Mind Team

Our flagship events are about bringing people together and raising vital funds and awareness within our community, so that no one has to face a mental health challenge alone. And you don’t have to take on the challenge yourself to be part of it! There are lots of ways you can get involved, support our cause, and make a real difference.

Whether you’d like to volunteer your time, get your workplace or community group involved, or support us as a local business or service provider, we’d love to have you on our team.

• Become a marshal
  Help participants find their way, keep everyone safe and cheer them on as they take on their challenge. You’ll be right in the heart of the action and play an important part in making sure the event runs smoothly.

• Capture the moment
  Are you handy with a camera? We’d love your help capturing the smiles, celebrations, determination and unforgettable moments from our events. Your photos help us showcase the incredible people who take part and bring the experience to life.

• Host a water station
  Help keep participants fuelled and hydrated as they make their way around the route. A friendly face, a cup of water and a few words of encouragement can make a huge difference when someone is tackling a challenge.

• Get involved as a service provider
  From event services and equipment to specialist skills and local expertise, there are lots of ways businesses and organisations can support our events. If you have a service that you think could help, we’d love to hear from you.

• Bring your team
  Why not get your workplace, community group, sports club or organisation involved? You could volunteer together, support participants along the route or come along and show your support. It’s a brilliant way to bring people together while supporting better mental health across Devon.

Your support makes our events possible

Whatever role you choose, you’ll be making a real difference. Our fundraising events help enable us to continue providing life-changing support to those who need us the most across Devon. Volunteering is a great way to meet new people, get involved in your local community, and enjoy the atmosphere of our events.

We really do appreciate every offer of support. We simply could not run these events without our amazing volunteers, and we’re incredibly grateful to everyone who gives their time to help make them happen. So, if you’d like to be part of the team, we’d love to hear from you!
