Shop Volunteers
Our volunteers play an important role in helping us sort, price, and sell stock.
Volunteering is a great way to gain retail experience, meet new people, and support a local charity making a real difference.
If you are interested in joining our friendly team, please get in touch or speak to a member of staff in either shop.
