Warehouse volunteer (homestore)

Canterbury
British Heart Foundation
Posted: 8 July
Offer description

The charity funds around £100 million of research each year into all heart and circulatory diseases and the factors that cause them. Heart diseases, stroke, vascular dementia, and diabetes are all connected, and they are all under our microscope. Our volunteers help us fund lifesaving science to improve the lives of families and loved ones living with heart and circulatory disease. Volunteering with us is easy, flexible, and inclusive. If you can spare a few hours a week, or a couple of hours occasionally, we’d love you to join our volunteer team.

Are you someone who would like to stay in shape, help save the planet, and raise funds to save lives? Volunteering in your local furniture store warehouse could be the answer. We need Warehouse Volunteers to help move stock from the van to the warehouse and sales floor, and back to the van for delivery when items are sold. This role can be physical, but it’s not just moving furniture around. There are other opportunities to help in our warehouse, such as logistics, booking stock in, building flat-packed furniture, and testing electrical items – you can try different roles. You will help protect the environment through recycling while helping us create a world free from the fear of heart disease.

Just so you know, we are unable to accept volunteers under 17 or those with unspent criminal convictions. Please note this is an unpaid voluntary position in a friendly charity shop.

Typical tasks include:

* Safely lifting and carrying a range of furniture items by hand
* Ensuring the warehouse is kept clean, safe, and organised
* Dealing with van deliveries to the shop and preparing deliveries for customers
* Building flat-pack furniture for display purposes and carrying out light furniture repairs if confident, alongside the Warehouse Supervisor
* Re-stocking furniture on the shop floor as items are sold

Volunteering with British Heart Foundation comes with plenty of benefits too…

* A 25% discount on donated goods and 10% discount on new goods in our shops
* Unlimited, free, and confidential support by Retail Trust
* Access to training and development
* Reasonable travel expenses reimbursed
* Refreshments available
* Volunteer certificates, references, and long service awards
* Access to discounts with other retailers
