Summary

Assisting the shop manager with providing a warm and welcoming atmosphere in the shop. This may involve serving customers, sorting donations or pricing stock.

Detailed description

Our Burleigh Street shop (near the Grafton Centre) is one of our larger shops, with a beautiful big window for us to highlight our fantastic goods! The surrounding area is home to a large number of charity shops we have a number of regular customers who make Burleigh Street their charity shopping destination!


We ask for a commitment of around 4 hours weekly or fortnightly, but are always keen to hear from you if you need greater flexibility . Our Charity shops are the perfect place to meet people from your area and learn new skills - or utilise your existing experience!


Whilst volunteering you may support with:

  • Sorting donations
  • Steaming items for display using our special steamer
  • Pricing stock
  • Managing the till area and greeting customers
  • Dressing the window
  • Placing the stock on the shop floor


This is a varied role and can be tailored to suit you and your experience. Whether you're a people person or you prefer to be behind the scenes, there's something for everyone!
