In addition to this, you will sort through the donated bedding and towels we receive and decide what items we can keep, what can be recycled and what we need to throw away, endeavouring to waste as little as possible. There is a manual handling element of the role to consider upon application

Cleaning & Tidying
This can sometimes be a messy task, so a willingness to get your hands dirty is essential as you will sometimes be cleaning soiled blankets, towels and vet beds used in our recovery suite. There is a manual handling element of the role, so this should be considered upon application. You don’t need to have any prior experience, you will be given full onsite training on how to use our machines and where everything goes.
This is an important role as the supply of clean bedding, towels and toys is essential for the welfare of our animals. You will be helping us keep them comfortable, warm and entertained. In addition to making a difference to the animals in our care, you will get to know our friendly team and gain further insight into how the Home runs.
Our volunteer requirement is on Monday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday between the hours of 10:00-16:00. A weekly commitment of 2-3 hours is preferred.
