Charity Shops

We are always on the lookout for friendly and enthusiastic volunteers in our shops. Volunteering in our charity shops can provide you with an opportunity to learn new skills, make new friends and work as part of a team. We currently have volunteers who are helping us whilst looking for work, who are retired, who are students on work placements and people who work part time. Our volunteers have varied roles including helping customers, operating the tills, pricing stock and sorting through donations.

Our friendly shop staff make volunteering in our charity shops a fun and enjoyable experience.

For more information please get in touch or fill out a volunteer application form.

 

Fundraising Events

Crossroads hosts a variety of different fundraising events throughout the year. From murder mystery evening to bake sales, charity balls to quiz nights, there is always something for everyone. Most of our events need volunteers to make sure they run smoothly. Volunteers can choose which events they would like to be involved with and choose how much they want to participate. There is always a range of different tasks including operating tills, collecting money, helping with arts and crafts and running cake stalls. We also welcome teams of volunteers.

If you would like to volunteer for an event please get in touch with our fundraising team.

 

Man Power 

We are always on the look out for individual or teams of volunteers to help us with odd jobs. This can include practical tasks such as maintaining our garden at our day services centre or giving our nursery a lick of paint. We also welcome all ideas!
