Retail Display Volunteer

Volunteer to help Sue Ryder to be there when it matters.

About us
Our Herlington shop is looking for volunteers to join the team. Sue Ryder's very first pound shop. New stock is available every day and our team are always happy to share in your joy of finding that special something - from coats and suits through to bric-a-brac and entertainment.
We are situated in a small parade of shops and there is always laughter, cheer and a warm welcome awaiting you in store. We're surrounded by a thriving community of all ages that supports us and has taken us to their hearts.

About you
As a Window Display Volunteer you'll put your creative eye for design to good use by window dressing, producing an interesting and inviting atmosphere to entice customers into the shop and help display items at their best potential. Use our merchandising guidelines to best effect and get a little creative yourself.

Please note - we do have a minimum age requirement in our shops of 18. We regret that we cannot proceed with your application if you are not yet 18.

How you’ll benefit
• Join a friendly team & make new friends
• Gain confidence & customer service skills
• Get valuable retail experience & enhance your CV
• Receive discounted donated goods and travel expenses
• Give back to your community
• Support people through the most difficult times of their lives

You will also be helping us to inspire communities to provide more care for more people through innovating and collaborating on ways to reduce, reuse and recycle.

Full training will be provided, and travel at a reasonable local rate can be reimbursed for shifts of four hours or more, as agreed with the local manager.

How much time does the role take up?
Volunteering is flexible and can be a regular morning or afternoon. You can opt for weekdays, weekends, or as and when you are available.

Why not arrange a taster session?
You can register your interest in volunteering online or directly in store. You can have a no-obligation taster session in your chosen shop.
