Become a Run Buddy
Run Together. Laugh Together. Make a Difference.
You don’t need to be the fastest runner. You don’t need to be a coach. You just need to be friendly, encouraging and happy to run alongside someone who might need a little extra support.
As a Run Buddy, you could be the person who turns “I’m not sure I can do this” into “I did it!”
What You’ll Do:
- 💙 Run alongside someone at their chosen pace.
- 🙌 Encourage and motivate without pressure or judgement.
- 😊 Help people feel welcome, included and part of the group.
- 🤝 Build confidence through friendly conversation and support.
- 👟 Work alongside our Run Leaders to help make sure no one is left behind.
The role is about companionship and practical support while respecting each participant's choices and independence.
Training & Support 🎓
Never volunteered before? No problem!
You’ll receive Runspire onboarding training to help you feel confident and ready for your role, including safeguarding, inclusion and how to support participants.
You don’t need a coaching qualification.
You’ll Be Great at This If…
You’re friendly, patient, dependable and encouraging and love seeing other people grow in confidence.
