Carlisle, United Kingdom British Heart Foundation Full time

Our charity funds around £100 million of research each year into all heart and circulatory diseases and the things that cause them. Heart diseases. Stroke. Vascular dementia. Diabetes. They're all connected, and they're all under our microscope. Our volunteers help us fund lifesaving science to improve the lives of families and loved ones living with heart and circulatory disease. Volunteering with us is easy, flexible, and inclusive. If you can spare a few hours a week, or a couple of hours occasionally, we’d love you to join our volunteer team.

Could you encourage your local community to recycle their unwanted items by donating them to your local British Heart Foundation shop? Could you help to build and maintain friendly relationships in the local community and talk to local businesses about surplus stock they could donate? Join your local BHF shop in this flexible and unusual volunteer role that will have a big impact, helping us continue to fund life saving research.

Just so you know, we are unable to accept volunteers aged under 16 or with unspent criminal convictions. Please note this is an unpaid voluntary position in a friendly charity shop.
