Did you know that you don't have to be a runner to benefit from parkrun?
We welcome walkers every week, and volunteering is even more fun - currently this week we're on the lookout for marshals, funnel managers and number checkers. Drop us a line southwark@parkrun.com

This Saturday is our annual Tinsel Run, when festive wear is welcomed and encouraged! 🌲🎅
It's easier to volunteer in a Christmas jumper than to run, so if you'd like to help out this week, or any Saturday over the festive period, please email southwark@parkrun.com
