Job Description
We're recruiting volunteers over the age of 18 to help keep the new Urban Save the Children Charity Shop in Edinburgh Nicolson St open, so please apply if you're interested in finding out more.
At Save the Children, we believe in changing children’s future, we operate in the UK and around the world to ensure children are safe and healthy. We support them to learn, grow and become who they want to be. Our wonderful shops help raise vital funds to help us do this, and our volunteers are the leading force in making this possible.
Our Edinburgh Nicolson Street Save the Children Shop is a modern, contemporary, urbanised street store, unlike any other traditional charity shop you have ever seen - full of vintage treasures, gorgeous greenery and creativity. It’s a much loved part of the local community, hugely popular with customers and supporters due to the kindness and generosity of the Volunteer Team.
Don’t worry if you haven’t had any experience of working in a shop because we will provide all the training you need and let you build up your skills and knowledge in your own time.
The shop is warm, friendly, and fun where you’ll get the chance to meet new people, make friends, learn new skills, and get involved in your local community. The role is diverse, taking place on the shop floor and behind the scenes. Volunteer tasks include anything from sorting donations, steaming clothes, pricing products, managing the till, and helping with the window displays. We also reimburse travel expenses, so you won’t be out of pocket.
The kettle's always on (when we're open) if you fancy popping in for a chat in person, otherwise just click on apply to let us know you’re interested.
Your donation of time, creativity and kindness can help us change the future for children all over the world.
