Volunteering is open to those aged 14 years and over.Travelling expenses can be reimbursed.

Do you have some spare time available to regularly support us in our very recently refurbished Gosforth Shop or Gosforth Books Shop? This could be the opportunity for you.

This is a great opportunity for volunteers who like to try a bit of everything, from dealing with customers face-to-face to taking payment for goods, answering customer enquiries to sorting donations and helping to prepare them for sale. There are a range of opportunities for volunteers to support us in both the front and back of our Gosforth shops.

Skills needed

Good communication skills are desirable for these exciting roles.Volunteering can help boost or maintain your skills and confidence – and if you don’t have the skills needed, then where possible we’ll help to develop them. Often enthusiasm, a willingness to learn and a ready smile are the most important skills required. There is no need for any previous retail or volunteering experience.

Benefits for the Volunteer

It is an opportunity to make new friends, meet new people and join a friendly team at the heart of the local community.
