Course Marshall @ Cancer Research Shine Night Walk London September 20th 2025

Shine Night Walk is our flagship event - offering participants the chance to complete a Marathon, Half Marathon or 10K while taking in some of the capital’s most iconic landmarks. It’s a unique and uplifting experience. ​With fairy lights, glow sticks and a shared

sense of purpose, the atmosphere is something truly special.

You can make a big difference in just a few hours. 

We’re looking for enthusiastic volunteers to support our next Cancer Research UK Shine Night Walk event in London, on the 20th September 2025.

Whether you’re coming solo, bringing a friend or part of a larger group, your support means our event can run smoothly and raise money to fund lifesaving research.

At Cancer Research UK we're committed to creating an inclusive culture where everyone can be themselves and reach their full potential. We have a variety of roles available and will happily consider making any reasonable adjustments to support volunteer applications from people with a disability or health condition.

Whether you’re a first-time volunteer or a seasoned veteran, we’d love for you to join us!  

Volunteers need to be aged 13 or over on the night of the event. If you are 16 or 17 on the night of the event, you’ll need to seek permission from your legal parent or guardian to volunteer. If you are 13 - 16 on the night of the event, your legal parent or guardian will need to complete the online application form for themselves, providing a name and date of birth of any accompanying under 16s in the 'Comments' box. You will need to be accompanied by a responsible adult on the night who is also registered to volunteer.
