Warehouse Volunteer

Bristol, United Kingdom British Heart Foundation Full time

The 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.

Are you someone who would like to stay in shape, help save the planet and raise funds to save lives? Volunteering in your local furniture store warehouse could be the answer. We need Warehouse Volunteers to keep our stock moving from the van to the warehouse and sales floor, and back to the van for delivery when items are sold. This role can be physical but it’s not just moving furniture around. There are other opportunities to help in our warehouse, such as warehouse logistics, booking stock in, building our flat-packed furniture, and testing electrical items - you can try different roles. You will help protect the environment through recycling while helping us create a world free from the fear of heart disease.

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.

**Typical tasks include:
- Safely lifting and carrying a range of furniture items by hand
- Ensuring the warehouse is always kept clean, safe and organised
- Dealing with van deliveries to the shop and preparing deliveries for customers
- Building flat-pack furniture for display purposes and carrying out light furniture repairs if confident alongside the Warehouse Supervisor

Re-stocking furniture on the shop floor as items are sold

**Volunteering with British Heart Foundation comes with plenty of benefits too
- A 25% discount on donated goods and 10% discount on New Goods in our shops
- Unlimited, free, and confidential support by Retail Trust
- Access to training and development
- Reasonable travel expenses reimbursed
- Refreshments available
- Volunteer certificates, references and long service awards provided
- Access to discounts with other retailers
- Free on-site parking
- Local bus stop with buses from Bristol and Bath
