Volunteer Retail Assistants - Keynsham - Tues & Weds am/pm, Fri am/pm + Bric-a-Brac Specialist - 5 hrs per week
Dorothy House Hospice Care
Our shops are a hive of activity and the heart of the community. We want you to join our team of amazing volunteers and help us raise even more money, so we can make a real difference.
Our shops help raise lots of money for us. It’s always lovely chatting to our customers about the fabulous items we sell and telling them about the fantastic work that we do. You’ll get the chance to meet new people and make friends plus you’ll be part of an amazing team of volunteers. We are currently seeking volunteers for the following shifts: Tuesday and Wednesday mornings - Till/Back of House Friday mornings - Back of House Friday afternoons - Till We are also looking for a Bric-a-Brac Specialist - 5 hours a week. There’s so much for you to get stuck in to when you’re volunteering in our shops. We get lots of donations and it's always exciting when one of our volunteers spots a real gem. You'll be taking in, sorting, steaming and pricing donations, rolling up your sleeves in the backroom as well as being on the shop floor. Serving customers with a smile is so important. You’ll be using the till (don't worry, we'll show you how) and handling money. And when people come in to donate items you'll also be completing the Gift Aid forms that let their donations help us even more. It’s really important that our window and shop displays look appealing so people keep visiting our shops. So you'll be wielding a duster and vacuum as well as your imagination to make the shop look its best. It would be ideal if you could volunteer one shift a week, which is about four hours but we're also happy to have more flexible times. No special skills are needed as we’ll show you what to do and we provide all the training you’ll need. But if you have any experience or particular interest tell us, it may come in useful. It’s really easy to get your volunteering started. If you're over 14 years old, just click on ‘Apply’ and get filling in your details!
