Charity shop volunteer
As a charity shop volunteer, you’ll take part in a wide range of activities that support the day-to-day running of the shops. You could be involved in customer service, processing transactions on the tills, replenishing the stock on the shop floor, or perfecting eye-catching displays to entice customers in!
Behind the scenes, volunteers also get involved in sorting donations, finding hidden gems and preparing goods for sale.
Why volunteer in one of our charity shops?
- You’ll gain retail experience, learn new skills and develop your CV
- You’ll meet people from all walks of life, make new friends and become part of a fantastic team
- You’ll make a difference and do your bit to support a great cause
- You’ll receive full training and we’ll reimburse your travel expenses so you’re not out of pocket
- You can devote as much or as little of your spare time!
About The PDSA Wallsend
PDSA is a charity. We have been taking care of pets in need for over 105 years. In 2022, vets and vet nurses in our 48 Pet Hospitals cared for over 4,600 sick and injured pets every day.
Caring for pets whose owners can’t afford the full cost of their veterinary treatment is the reason we’re here. But we’re also a leading authority on pet health, and we raise the status of animals by celebrating their contributions to our lives.
We believe that every pet deserves to lead a happy and healthy life and that everyone has the right to experience the love and companionship of a pet.
But we can’t do any of it without you. Your support is invaluable to keeping our doors open and helping us be there when pets need us most.
What skills do I need?
We’re looking for people who are 18 years of age or over who enjoy working in a team to make a difference. Our application form is online, but if you need help or more information, you can pop into your local PDSA charity shop and talk to the friendly Shop Manager or give them a call to discuss the role in more detail.
