Volunteer Administration Assistant Rspca Cumbria
2 weeks ago
**VOLUNTEER ADMINISTRATION ASSISTANT**
**Administration Assistant RSPCA Cumbria West Branch**
**All About Us at Cumbria West**
**Our charity shop in the heart of Whitehaven is looking for a friendly volunteer to join our team and help to provide administration support for our animal welfare and volunteering activities. Join our dedicated team of animal daft people, make new friends, have fun, and help us care our local animals**
**About our opportunity**
In our building we currently have two retail spaces, one space for clothing and accessories and the other retail space is for bric-a-brac and gifts. These two retail areas are only separated by a very small, covered courtyard, which is also part of our building, so we can work very closely together, and give each other plenty of support. The upper floors include offices and dedicated spaces for sorting and preparing donations, online sales and administration.
We offer positive and friendly guidance and support especially with our new volunteers in mind, for those of us who are learning new skills, or for people who may have joined us to gain more confidence and social skills.
We are very aware that many people may need just a little bit of a helping hand to make friends and to socialise, after being confined in their homes for long periods of time, isolated with little social contact, or who may even have been ill, all due to the Covid 19 pandemic. We don’t think there is anyone who hasn’t been affected in one way or another.
All the volunteers and trustees are a mixture of ages, with different personalities and life skills, the thing that consistently brings us all together is our love of everything animal, we would love to hear from you if you think that you could offer us some help make RSPCA Cumbria West a great success and raise vital funds for local animal welfare.
We all also like having a chat, with a cuppa and a cheeky biscuit, so come and meet us
If you are still not sure about joining us, come and have a chat, or visit us for a couple of days, we can show you around, introduce you to other volunteers and give you a chance to get to know how we work.
**About the RSPCA**
Founded in 1824 we have been saving animals for almost 200 years and are proud to be the oldest welfare charity around. It has always been our vision to live in a world where all animals are respected and treated with compassion, so our volunteers and employees work tirelessly to ensure that all animals can live free from pain and suffering.
**About Our Charity Shop in Whitehaven Market Place**
The shop is part of the RSPCA Cumbria West Branch building and plays an essential role in raising our profile in our local community and funds raised go to support our branch activities so that we can continue our vital animal welfare work. Our shops sell a mixture of donated items, including clothes, books, bric-a-brac and collectables, and a selection of new items.
