We're seeking massage therapists to volunteer at the Great North Run on Sunday, September 13th, 2026, in South Shields.
We'll provide everything you need, including massage beds, oil, hand gel, and other essentials.
Our team of 80 runners will be invited to the reception for post-race massages, focusing on their legs to help ease muscle tension after their incredible charity challenge.
Not all runners will attend, so your primary task will be offering 10-15 minute massages. If you can spare anytime between 12:30 and 6pm that would be greatly appreciated.
