Volunteer Donations Assistant - Harrogate
Yorkshire Cancer Research
Description of the role:

Make a difference just by being you

The majority of our shops don’t have a lot of space to store donated stock, so our Donation Centre in Harrogate is a vital resource to enable us to keep more stock, organise goods for sale and to get the right items out to the most suitable shop.

There is no minimum time commitment that we expect from our volunteers so whether you can do a few hours a week or once a month, we’ll do our best to offer a role that fits in with your schedule. No previous experience is necessary as training will be provided.

What happens next?

If you decide to apply a member of the volunteering team will contact you and ask you to come in for an initial chat. This is not an interview, just a chance to get an idea of how you'd like to help. From there you can meet the rest of the volunteer team and get involved with whatever area of the Donation Centre that takes your interest!
