Helping out at the Mental Elf Fun Run

Mind in Bexley are hosting a Mental Elf 5K Fun Run in Danson Park, and would love your help to make sure everything runs smoothly.

We may be asked to:

• Help with registration - checking people in and handing out safety pins and elf hats

• Marshal the course to cheer on runners and keep them on track 🏃‍♀️

• Hand out finishers’ medals at the end of the run 🏅

🕗 Timings

Please arrive by 8:00am for a briefing.

The run starts at 10:00am and finishes by 12:00pm.

If you’re an early elf and can come at 7:00am, extra help unloading vans and setting up marquees would be amazing!

Or, if you can stay until 2:00pm to help pack down, Santa will definitely have you on his 'nice' list! 😇
