We wouldn’t be able to help the people of Yorkshire avoid, survive and cope with cancer without the efforts of hundreds of volunteers across the region. Their time is incredibly valuable to us, and every minute counts.
Events raise thousands of pounds every year for important research projects. Volunteers are key to their success.
They add an extra sparkle, helping everything run smoothly and making sure everyone gets the most out of the day.
As a volunteer you can help with activities such as marshalling, manning water stations and cheering on participants. You can feel a real sense of achievement after helping to deliver a successful event.
If you would like to help, please contact the Events Team by emailing events@ycr.org.uk or calling 01423 877210.
We have two shops you can volunteer to help in:
Northallerton
32 Romanby Road, Northallerton, DL7 8NB
Tadcaster
Bridge Street, Tadcaster, LS24 9AL
For more information about how to volunteer at our shops, please contact the Fundraising Team by emailing fundraising@ycr.org.uk or calling 01423 877210. You can volunteer to work as little or as often as you like – whatever suits you!
