If you’d like to make a difference behind the scenes, if you’re a keen rummager or if you like things to be neat and tidy, then we have a role for you - helping in our BHF shop stock room. If you love a bit of ironing, then master the clothes steamer and watch those wrinkles disappear (it’s surprisingly therapeutic!), or become a clothes tagger extraordinaire, allowing customers to understand what item they are purchasing. If you want a hands-on volunteer role behind the scenes or just fancy the company of other friendly volunteers our shop stock room is the place to be.
Typical tasks include:
- Preparing donated items for sale
- Using a clothes steamer
- Attaching labels and tags to donated items ready for sale
- Identifying unsaleable donations for recycling
- Keeping the sort room organised and tidy
Volunteering is easy, flexible, and inclusive. If you can spare a few hours a week, or a couple of hours occasionally, we’d love you to join our volunteer team.
What skills do I need?
No special skills required.
