Join us at Shaw Trust Wantage as a Volunteer Retail Assistant and help us raise vital funds to support communities across the UK.

Whether you prefer to keep busy behind the scenes or engaging with customers, every day in our shop is unique and offers a range of activities for you to do.

You could be sorting donations, serving people at the till, creating stylish window displays or keeping the shop fully stocked and tidy.

Our friendly shop team will give you all the training and support you need to make you feel comfortable and confident here. We believe that everyone has something to offer, even if you have no experience in retail.

**What's in it for you**

Volunteering is a great way to make a real difference and build your skills. As well supporting Shaw Trust, you’ll be staying active and social, will grow your confidence and meet new people.

Most of the time, we cover some lunch and travel expenses. We’ll always be as flexible as possible around your education, family, work, and health commitments.

**What we’re asking for**

The main thing we are looking for is that you are happy to work with a team and have a helpful attitude. The ability to offer around 4 hours of help a week would be preferable, though we can be flexible. Volunteers in our shop must be aged 14 and over.
