Volunteer with us!
At Acorns we provide care and support for life limited or life threatened children and their families. We are a charity, so most of the care that we provide is funded through fundraising and through our shops.
To help us to continue to provide the care that we do, we are looking for fun and enthusiastic volunteers to join us in our Cotteridge shop. Our shops are exciting and dynamic, with no two days being the same. From our walk-in customers, to receiving donations, and everything in between
As a Lead Shop Volunteer with us, you will be:
- Supporting the daily operation of the shop and stepping up to run it when needed.
- Delivering outstanding customer service and creating a warm, welcoming experience for every visitor.
- Guiding and supporting our amazing volunteers, offering direction and encouragement.
- Handling cash and completing banking tasks — full training provided, of course.
- Getting creative with merchandising, ensuring our displays always look their best.
- Maintaining high standards of housekeeping and helping with the smooth, day-to-day running of the store
Our shops are open Monday to Saturday (some open on Sundays too) 9am to 5pm. You can volunteer the hours that suit you, but it would be great if you could support in the shop for at least 3 hours a week.
