St Peter's Hospice Charity Shop Volunteering

Volunteering in St Peter's Hospice charity shops in and around Bristol is a practical way to support the local hospice while gaining experience in a busy retail environment. Volunteers can help with customer service, including using tills, as well as sorting, processing and steam cleaning stock as it arrives from customers or the warehouse.

There are also opportunities to help with merchandising and creating attractive window displays. The role is designed to fit around existing commitments, with volunteers able to give as much time as they can spare, from a couple of hours a week to a few days at a time.

Volunteers receive full training and ongoing support. The experience can help build transferable skills in retail and customer service, boost confidence, and look strong on CVs and UCAS forms. It may also lead to paid work in the hospice shops or elsewhere.
