Why am I needed?

Community is at the heart of everything that we do at Tenovus Cancer Care to help those affected by cancer.

- Completing Gift Aid shop paperwork
- Supporting the Shop Manager in carrying out shop security procedures
- Promoting awareness of the charity and the services that we provide

How much time do I need to commit?

- Following that the Shop Manager and team will be on hand to run you through the basics of helping in a shop in your first few days and they will always be on hand after that. Becoming a volunteer with Tenovus Cancer Care can be a rewarding experience and is certainly invaluable to the charity and its goals.
