Why volunteer in our shops?
We have over 550 charity shops across the UK that rely on volunteers to help raise money for our pioneering research.
As a shop volunteer you’ll be the face of the charity and make a big difference to how the public sees us and the work we do.
You’ll help make our shops a success on the high street, meet new people and get retail experience.
Get an NVQ qualification
As well as helping in the fight against cancer, you can also use your time in our shops to get an NVQ in a retail related subject.
It takes just 3 to 6 months to complete and is open to anyone based in England, with or without previous retail experience. You’ll need to volunteer around 16 hours per week and you’ll be assessed by completing a range of shop duties.
