Do you have a few hours to spare? Volunteering is a great opportunity to meet people, have fun, and help to support your local charity. Shop Volunteers can help in many different ways - preparing goods for sale, helping customers in the shop and helping at the till. They provide a friendly welcome to customers and help the shops to run smoothly. With ICSA member charity shops in every county there is bound to be one near you. Find a shop here.
