IMPORTANT - We will need your parkrun barcode before the sign-up date closes, you can email Cardiff junior parkrun directly at cardiffjuniors@parkrun.com
Volunteering at parkrun requires registering for a barcode beforehand, and important step not usually seen at a typical GoodGym mission, but essential for these ones.
Sadly, no dogs are permitted at a Junior parkrun event - either for volunteers or participants.
If you do not already have a parkrun barcode, you can [sign up for one here]( https://support.parkrun.com/hc/en-us/articles/205595392-How-do-I-register-#:~:text=To%20register%20with%20us%20please,you%20remain%20registered%20for%20life).
A free, fun, and friendly weekly 2k event for juniors (4 to 14 year olds).
First, and most importantly, we never ask anybody to do anything they're not comfortable with. If you don't want a particular task, please let us know and we will happily give you an alternative job. Nevertheless, none of our tasks are too stressful. You could be organising the finish funnel, operating the timer, or scanning barcodes using the simple Virtual Volunteer app. If you really want to do something in particular, please let us know and we'll see what we can do.
Reminder - Register for a parkrun barcode, and unfortunately no dogs are allowed on the course, either for runners or volunteers.

Our Summer event is a bit different this year.
We are making our way to Bute Street... I'll be running but you don't have too.
The celebrations begin on Sunday 30 August with our spectacular Carnival Parade, assembling outside Butetown Health Centre, Bute Road (CF10 5HR) before making its way through Butetown to Cardiff Bay. The parade culminates at Wales Millennium Centre, where celebrations continue across the Senedd Steps, Pierhead Building and the waterfront.
Expect vibrant costumes, giant puppets, powerful rhythms, live music, dance and hundreds of performers filling the streets with colour, creativity and joy.
This year’s theme, Heritage in Motion, celebrates the people, cultures and stories that have shaped Butetown for generations. From the historic docks of Tiger Bay to the vibrant community that thrives here today, Carnival honours our shared past while celebrating the creativity, resilience and diversity that continue to define Butetown.
Timings to be confirmed soon (rough timings are below for now).
* 11:00 - 11:30 Meet up
* 11:30 - 12:00 Parade
* 12:00 - 21:00 Carnival time
We won't all be staying until the end, this is just an idea of carnival timings.
