Many of our 400 volunteers give their time in one of our retail outlets across the region which just couldn’t function without their willing help. Join our warm community of volunteers and staff! Working alongside the shop’s manager, you’ll become part of our friendly team which generates as much income as possible to support children, young people and families who need our support.
Whether you’re a ‘people-person’ who would enjoy greeting and serving our customers, or you’re more suited to a behind-the-scenes role, where you would sort and prepare donations, we’d love to hear from you!
There are also opportunities for people who love books, music and collectibles.
Our volunteers in our shops help with:
· ensuring quality customer service
· introducing Gift Aid to donors
· promoting the Martin House lottery
· serving customers
· housekeeping and merchandising
In line with COVID regulations, our till areas have screens round them, and there’s hand sanitiser and face coverings available for volunteers to use. You can support us in a regular half day slot by giving a morning or afternoon a week, or become one of our bank volunteers if you can spare a couple of hours when we need extra help to cover.
Skills and qualities needed for the role:
No experience required as full training will be given.
We are looking for people who would enjoy working alongside us to generate income for our local children’s hospice.
Practical information:
The shop is located centrally: 68 Gowthorpe, Selby, North Yorkshire, YO8 4ET.
I’m interested. How do I become a charity shop volunteer?
