Cardiff, United Kingdom British Heart Foundation Furniture & Electrical Full time

Are you someone who would like to stay in shape, help save the planet and raise funds to save lives? Volunteering in one of our local furniture store warehouses could be the answer.

We need warehouse operative volunteers to keep our stock moving from the van to the warehouse and shop 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.

**Say hello to the team**:
Funding for researchers begins at your local charity shop. Last year our British Heart Foundation UK charity shops across the UK raised an incredible £28 million - this wouldn’t have been possible without our fantastic volunteers.

The Crwys Road team led by Perveen and Darren look forward to welcoming new volunteers

**Typical tasks include**:

- Ensuring the warehouse is always kept in a clean, safe and organised state
- Safely lifting and carrying a range of furniture items, big or small - it all helps
- Dealing with van deliveries to the shop and preparing deliveries for customers
- Building flat-pack furniture for display purposes, carrying out light furniture repairs if confident alongside Warehouse Supervisor
- Re-stocking furniture on the shop floor as items are sold
- Acting as an ambassador for the British Heart Foundation

**You get a lot from volunteering too**:

- A chance to work in a friendly team, make new friends & meet a diverse group
- The feel-good factor of giving back to a good cause and being part of your local community
- The time to develop your confidence and interpersonal skills
- You can gain valuable warehouse experience to add to your CV and learn new skills
- Flexibility to fit with your lifestyle
- choose shifts that suit you
- Reasonable travel reimbursed in agreement with Perveen and Darren

**Here's a little bit more about us**:
The BHF is here to Beat Heartbreak Forever. We are working towards a world free from the fear of heart and circulatory diseases. By 2030, we want to see advances across the spectrum of heart and circulatory diseases; we want to prevent these conditions from developing and we want those with existing conditions to have better, longer lives.
