Summary
Could you spare a few hours on a Sunday to volunteer at our Chesham shop. We welcome young people aged 14 and above.Detailed description
Could you spare a few hours on a Sunday to volunteer in our Chesham shop. You will be part of a friendly team welcoming customers and donors and help raise much needed funds for the charity.
We have extended our opening hours to a Sunday at our Chesham shop to allow more opportunities for customers and donors.
You’ll be assisting with the day to day running of the charity shop which involves using the cash till, receiving donations, sorting, valuing and pricing items, as well as helping to display them. You’ll also be involved with steaming clothes and general housekeeping.
Our shops welcome volunteers of all ages from fourteen upwards. If you’d like to find out more, please pop into your local shop and have a chat with the manager. They’ll be able to talk you through what’s involved, talk about the time you have to offer, and arrange a taster session to see if you like it.
What we will provide to volunteers
💸 Reimbursement of costsAbout Rennie Grove Peace Hospice Care
We are proud to offer care in the place that best suits the individual’s needs, whether that’s at home, in a care home, in a short stay in our inpatient unit, out in the community, or in our purpose-built Living Well Centre facilities. As a hospice care charity, we have offered this support, free of charge, for over 40 years.
Our staff team of 340+ includes a wide range of patient-facing disciplines plus operational support based in Watford, Tring, St Albans, Chalfont St Giles and Berkhamsted. The Charity is now one of the larger UK hospice charities, reaching a GP population of 797,037 of whom 75% live in Hertfordshire and 25% in Buckinghamshire.
Looking after over 4,500 patients a year, as well as those around them, is a huge privilege, one we simply could not achieve without the incredible support of our 1600 strong volunteer workforce. Our multidisciplinary team helps people to live well and receive support in the place that best suits their needs, when they need it the most. We’re here to help the whole family cope during the most difficult of times, early in diagnosis, during a patient’s illness and, if needed, when those around them are dealing with grief and bereavement.
