Aha, lol! Thought it was a straightforward typo! Thanks PenW for the correction and apologies if I've created confusion!

I've just seen on social media that Event Directors and Ambassadors are now to get credit for volunteering every week regardless of doing a role on the day at a parkrun. Sounds about right if they do stuff year round.

The best part of the announcement is that volunteers will still get credits if an event in cancelled last minute.

Oh that’s good- I always thought this should be the case at very least for RD, volunteer coordinator and course checker

That's good news, I hate being RD and doing all the work and cancelling at the last minute then getting nothing to show for it.

Got something to say?
