Money we raise through our stores means we can support more people with a learning disability to live the life they choose.
Having closed due to the recent lockdown, we have now reopened our store in Loughborough and are looking for a team of volunteers to help run the store. You can expect to do a number of different things, including serving customers on the till, taking donations, welcoming customers to the store and sorting/pricing stock.
The store has been fitted with protective screens at the till and we have PPE such as gloves, masks and aprons available for all volunteers. We also have access to sanitising gel for customers and volunteers and plenty of social distancing guidelines in store.
If you are friendly and enjoy being with different types of people then this would be a great volunteer role for you. We'd love to welcome you to the team, where you will be helping us to fulfill our vision of creating a world where people with a learning disability are valued equally, listened to and included.
