Volunteering at the Personal Bests

Our fantastic Personal Bests volunteers make the event so successful! We just couldn’t run the day without volunteers. We’re delighted that so many come back each year to support the event and we love receiving feedback from volunteers on how we can make the event even better.

It’s a busy day, filled with energy and enthusiasm. Led by our qualified and experienced coaches, volunteers help participants enjoy each activity and guide them round the site. Our volunteers also provide the participants with important social connections and a rich level of community engagement.

We are grateful to our corporate partners for their ongoing support of the event in providing volunteers. The Personal Bests offers an ideal opportunity for employer supported volunteering (ESV). Offering a valuable day away from the office where volunteers also strengthen their own team building skills, communication, empathy, leadership and problem-solving skills.
