Make a difference just by being you
If you enjoy surfing the internet or selling online why not join our retail team. This is an excellent opportunity if you want to gain experience in marketing, customer service and retail but would also suit someone who wishes to use their existing skills. Volunteering in our retail team is also an excellent way to make new friends and have fun.
There is no minimum time commitment that we expect from our volunteers so whether you can do a few hours a week or once a month, we’ll do our best to offer a role that fits in with your schedule. No previous experience is necessary as training will be provided.
What happens next?
If you decide to apply a member of the volunteering team will contact you and ask you to come in for an initial chat with the Donation Centre manager. This is not an interview, just a chance to get an idea of what you'd like to do at the Donation Centre. From there you can meet the rest of the volunteer team and get involved with whatever area of the Donation Centre most takes your interest!
