Get involved

Sussex RunFest is volunteer-run and built by our community. Whether you’d like to lead a session, help organise, lend a hand on the day, or support us as a business, we'd love to hear from you.

Speakers and activity leaders

Lead a run, give a talk

Could you host or lead an activity at Sussex RunFest? We’re putting together a varied, fun, and engaging line-up for 2027, with loads of opportunities to be involved.

Themes we have in mind
  • Guided runs and running experiences
  • Running games and challenges
  • Fitness, strength, and mobility
  • Yoga, movement, mental health and resilience, wellbeing
  • Injury prevention, rehabilitation, shoes and equipment, body mechanics
  • Interesting and inspiring personal running stories
  • Nutrition, habits, sports psychology
  • Community building, volunteering
  • Sustainability around running and events

We can host activities in many formats: presentation-style talks, ‘in conversation’ or panel events, guided physical activity, practical workshops, and more.

We’ve got a choice of locations and venues, as well as sound systems, projectors, and other equipment to make your activity a success. And if you’ve got an active fundraising campaign, let us know.

Volunteers and marshals

Be part of the team

RunFest has a lot of moving parts. To make sure everyone has a fantastic time, stays safe, and every activity goes off without a hitch, we rely on our brilliant volunteer team. Would you like to be part of it?

There’s all sorts we could use a hand with, including event organisation, promotion, on-the-day logistics, and plenty more.
