Stock Team Volunteer (Newhaven Warehouse) – Age UK East Sussex

Age UK East Sussex is an independent Charity working in East Sussex to offer support and services to older people. We want to make East Sussex a great place to grow older.

Our shops are a hive of activity and the heart of the local community. They raise funds to support our vital work and provide a place to find out more about how we help older people in the local area.

Our Stock Preparation Volunteers always enjoy being part of our shop teams; making new friends and helping the charity to maximise the income from the amazing items people donate to us.

In this role you will usually be working in our donation sorting area, which is off the shop floor. Here you will help the team process, prepare and price the items people donate.

We receive hundreds of bags of clothing, bric-a-brac, toys, games and all sorts of items every week. You will help us to turn these into vital funds to support our work.

After full training you will be part of our processing team; sorting through the donated items, identifying those which we should sell, preparing them and pricing before they are put onto the shop floor.

You will help to make our products look amazing; steaming clothes (if this is your area) and helping to clean and make every item look great and ready for sale.

It would be ideal if you could volunteer at least one shift a week, which is about three hours but we’re also happy to have more flexible times. No special skills are needed as we will show you what to do and will provide all the training you need. This role is open to applicants aged 16 or over.

We currently need volunteers for: Wednesday, Fridays, and weekends, both AM and PM.
