General Volunteer

We are a completely volunteer-run organisation, with some of the most passionate, dedicated and friendly volunteers around! We are looking to build our team of volunteers so that we can process donations. Whether it’s an hour here and there or a few hours a week, we’re always looking for enthusiastic volunteers to help us out. We just couldn’t run Togs without our amazing volunteers.

As a volunteer, you would be welcoming people who are donating items to us, sorting donations to ensure these are clean and in working order, arranging clothing by age into storage, setting pieces of baby equipment aside for safety checking by another volunteer in the team, making up packs of clothes or bundling items together for families in preparation for collection by Referral Partners.

We will also welcome “offsite” volunteers who can help in any way – skills in IT, social media, marketing, warehousing.
