General Shop Volunteer (Fridays or Saturdays) Eastleigh

Sue Ryder is here to make sure everyone approaching the end of life or living with grief can access the support they need. There is no one size fits all when it comes to how we cope and the help we need, but with our support, no one has to face dying or grief alone. We are there when it matters through our 7 hospices, Grief Kind spaces and online counselling and bereavement services. 

We are a newly opened shop so we are looking to find friendly people in a variety of roles in the shop to help build on our current team. We are currently very short on volunteers on Fridays and Saturdays, if you can spare a couple of hours on either of those days we would welcome you to get in touch. There are plenty of opportunities to make the shop and your role your own.

You will help us to:

• Receive donations from our supporters
• Help to sort, label and price our items before sale
• Welcome, Greet and help our customers and donors
• Serve customers on the till (full training provided)
• Create wonderful shop displays, re-stock our items on the shop floor
• Light cleaning/tidying duties to keep the shop inviting and well presented

Skills

You don’t need any experience to join us as a volunteer, you just need to be willing and helpful with a flexible and enthusiastic approach. Full training is provided and we can be flexible around your availability.

In return for your enthusiasm, you will have the opportunity to be part of a wonderful team, gain new skills and experience, and most importantly contribute towards making a difference to our service users and their families.
