Barnardo's (Aberdeen)
- VO103161
Our amazing team of vibrant & diverse volunteers helps us run over 600 shops. Our stores sell lots of great donated & new goods to help raise vital funds to make a real difference to disadvantaged children, young people and families across the UK.
Our retail stores are the face of our charity on the high-street and in local communities. We have loads of amazing stock donated to us every week, and this all needs to be sorted, tagged and put on the shop-floor for sale!
Making sure our shops look fantastic is another task you can get involved with. You may also be required to help out on the till too, but we will show you how that works during your time volunteering with us. We value the contribution of everyone who supports Barnardo’s.
You will be a friendly face of Barnardo’s by volunteering in one of our shops. It would be great if you could volunteer one shift a week (or even more if you want) but we’re always happy to be flexible to work around your availability.
We currently are recruiting volunteers in all our Aberdeen shops. Most of these are based in the city centre and are easily accessible via public transport.
Excellent support and relevant training is provided. Barnardo's offer a full induction training for all volunteers, ranging from Health & Safety, Safeguarding to Data Protection. Once complete, a certificate it issued to the participant. Volunteers are trained on all aspects of the successful running of a busy charity store, training is taken at the volunteers pace and the Manager will conduct informal chats to see how they are doing. Once enrolled, the volunteer will have access to many resources, such as The Well Being Hub and various support groups.
A great opportunity to help a major charity and make a real difference. All volunteers are greatly appreciated. For more information please contact Sharon Lay, Volunteer Recruitment Support Officer at email: sharon.lay@barnardos.org.uk or phone: 07594781343
