Shop Driver - (Hythe and Devizes)
Why am I needed?
Our shops depend on a regular supply of quality donated stock. As some shops receive more donations than others, we need drivers to move stock between our shops to ensure they are all fully stocked.
Our fantastic supporters rely on stock donations being collected from their door when they are unable to bring it to us. Here at Tenovus Cancer Care, we receive donated stock in many different ways, including collecting stock from supporters at their front door and picking up collections from local business partners.
All of this vital work needs to happen for us to raise more money to help cancer patients and their families.
What will I be doing?
Dependent on your volunteer location, duties may include but may not be limited to:
* Assisting the Retail team in moving stock between shops.
* Taking donated stock to shops and to the Warehouse.
* Delivering donation bags to homes in selected areas and collecting the full bags on an agreed day.
* Collecting donations at businesses where our ‘Donation Stations’ are located.
* Offering feedback to the Retail team on how to improve the collections service.
How much time do I need to commit?
This can be discussed with the Retail team and hours are very flexible to fit around you. Please note on your application how much time you can give.
What support and training will I be given?
A dedicated member of staff will be on hand to offer you advice, support, and guidance in your role.

* The enjoyment of meeting new people and being part of both our Retail Team and Wales’ leading cancer charity.
