Sue Ryder is one of the largest charity retailers in the UK with over 400 shops. Every item sold in our shops generates funding so we can continue to provide 2.7 million hours of expert medical, practical, bereavement and emotional support every year, in our hospices, in people's homes and in the community. We are here to make sure that everyone approaching the end of life or living with grief can access the support they need.

We have a much-loved presence on high streets across the country - with a range of innovative shops, including boutiques, vintage and retro shops, and large format stores. As a member of the retail team, you’ll be helping us inspire communities to provide more care for more people through innovating and collaborating on ways to reduce, reuse and recycle.

Our shop is of a boutique style and offers a lovely friendly one off shopping experience where customers can pop in for a chat as well as find a bargain. We have a great team of volunteers who have a vast knowledge between them, always willing to help find our customers their perfect find, from an outfit for a special occasion to a certain author or a fancy dress outfit. Although our shop is quite small we offer a good range of products. We regularly have a promotional rail for that extra bargain and our vintage themed section is always popular.
