Volunteer for us

Would you like to volunteer for Bowel Cancer UK? We are always looking for enthusiastic people to help with our work.

If you would like to support the work of Bowel Cancer UK we have a range of volunteering opportunities:

Do you have a story to tell?

We are keen to hear from people with experience of bowel cancer willing to share their stories on our website and to assist us in our media, marketing and campaigning activity.

Fundraising volunteers

We are always looking for enthusiastic people to help us support our fundraisers as they run, swim or cycle their way to the finish line! 

Give bowel cancer awareness talks

Our awareness volunteers work to communicate with and inspire people by delivering our awareness talks to groups within local communities and workplaces. We believe that people with experience of bowel cancer, either personally or through a family member or friend, are uniquely equipped to raise awareness and deliver these talks.

Volunteer at information stands

Our community volunteers do this by attending our awareness stands in the local community, at workplaces and at health events.  Talking to members of the public, one-to-one, is a very effective way to engage people.  We also use this opportunity to disseminate our information leaflets to a variety of people who can read the information in their own time.

Research participants

We are often looking for people with experience of bowel cancer to volunteer and take part in focus group discussions in order to gain insight into patients' experience of their treatment and care.
