Organisers from Somerset County Council’s Tour of Britain team are encouraging residents from Burnham-On-Sea to be part of the biggest cycling race in the UK and help make sure the South West stage, which will end in the town on September 9th, is a success.
Volunteers are needed to help marshal the race route, which will pass through the Quantocks, along the A358 and then head through Highbridge before the finish in Burnham – as we reported first in February.
If you think you could spare a couple of hours of your time when the race comes to the South West on Tuesday 9th September, organisers are keen for volunteers to sign up via its website here.
“Volunteers are crucial to making the event a success; they make a real difference to the riders and other spectators on the day by helping the race to run smoothly and safely,” said spokeswoman Claire Cullen.
“One lucky volunteer will also win the chance to ride in a team car during the final stage of next year’s race when the Tour of Britain finishes in London.”
