About us

Our Sidmouth shop is looking for volunteers to join the team. Our Sue Ryder shop in the beautiful setting of Sidmouth's traditional architecture, restaurants and shops offers a wonderful range of new and donated items. Described by poet laureate Sir John Betjeman as “a feast of visual delight”, Sidmouth is a beautiful, unspoilt Regency town overlooking the Lyme Bay.

About you

Are you interested in fashion trends, brands and designer labels? Do you love accessorising your look and want to learn about jewellery and perhaps showcase special treasures and design unique displays in store? As a volunteer Visual Merchandiser you'll put your creative eye for design to good use by window dressing, producing an interesting and inviting atmosphere to entice customers into the shop and help display items at their best potential.

Use our merchandising guidelines to best effect. If this sounds like you then we have the perfect retail volunteer role for you.

How you’ll benefit
- Join a friendly team & make new friends
- Gain confidence & customer service skills
- Get valuable retail experience & enhance your CV
- Receive discounted donated goods and travel expenses
- Give back to your community
- Support people through the most difficult times of their lives

You will also be helping us to inspire communities to provide more care for more people through innovating and collaborating on ways to reduce, reuse and recycle.

Full training will be provided, and travel at a reasonable local rate can be reimbursed for shifts of four hours or more, as agreed with the local manager.

How much time does the role take up?

Volunteering is flexible and can be a regular morning or afternoon. You can opt for weekdays, weekends, or as and when you are available.

Why not arrange a taster session?

You can register your interest in volunteering online or directly in store. You can have a no-obligation taster session in your chosen shop.
