Charity Shop Volunteers

Oxfam (East Lothian)
VO100065

People become Oxfam charity shop volunteers for all sorts of reasons. But there's one thing that unites them: they're one-of-a-kind.
Volunteering at Oxfam is the perfect way to make friends and gain new skills, whether you're looking to improve your CV, take on a new challenge or just have fun!
Depending on the needs of the shop and your interest, you may be involved in the following:

Using the shop's guidelines to sort and price donated clothes, books, homewares etc.
Receive donations from the public and ensure they are stored safely
Providing excellent customer service on the shop floor
Creating attractive displays across the shop
Promoting our Gift Aid scheme
Promoting our exciting sustainable fashion campaigns such as Second Hand September
We encourage our shop volunteers to develop an understanding of all aspects of the shop's work so that they can support the whole team as necessary.
