Whether you’ve got a few hours or a few days to spare, your time and energy will make a big difference. By joining our Bear Necessities Team, you’ll help families, friends, and visitors enjoy a magical trail while supporting a cause that really matters.

Volunteer roles include

🐻 Bear Checkers – stroll the trail to make sure our Bears are looking their best and staying safe.
🐻 Trail Makers – guide families and groups on special walks and share the adventure.
🐻 Trail Hub Helpers – welcome visitors and support at our two hubs in Dartford town centre and Bluewater.
🐻 Trail Preppers – get hands-on in the lead-up with varnishing, polishing, and prepping our Bears.

No matter your skills or experience, there’s a perfect spot for you on the team. Every volunteer helps make the trail unforgettable — and we’ll make sure you have a role that suits you.
