Science & Healthcare

British Heart Foundation

Healthcare

The largest independent funder of research into heart and circulatory diseases in the UK

<div>
 Our charity funds around £100 million of research each year into all heart and circulatory diseases and the things that cause them. Heart diseases. Stroke. Vascular dementia. Diabetes. They're all connected, and they're all under our microscope. Our volunteers help us fund lifesaving science to improve the lives of families and loved ones living with heart and circulatory disease. Volunteering with us is easy, flexible, and inclusive. If you can spare a few hours a week, or a couple of hours occasionally, we’d love you to join our volunteer team.
 If you’d like to make a difference behind the scenes, if you’re a keen rummager or if you like things to be neat and tidy, then we have a role for you - helping in our BHF shop stock room. If you love a bit of ironing, then master the clothes steamer and watch those wrinkles disappear (it’s surprisingly therapeutic!), or become a clothes tagger extraordinaire, allowing customers to understand what item they are purchasing. If you want a hands-on volunteer role behind the scenes or just fancy the company of other friendly volunteers our shop stock room is the place to be.
 Just so you know, we are unable to accept volunteers aged under 16 or with unspent criminal convictions. Please note this is an unpaid voluntary position in a friendly charity shop.
 Typical tasks include: 
 
 <ul>
 <li>Preparing donated items for sale</li>
 <li>Using a clothes steamer</li>
 <li>Attaching labels and tags to donated items ready for sale</li>
 <li>Identifying unsaleable donations for recycling</li>Keeping the sort room organised and tidy
 </ul>
 
 Volunteering with British Heart Foundation comes with plenty of benefits too… 
 
 <ul>
 <li>A 25% discount on donated goods and 10% discount on New Goods in our shops</li>
 <li>Unlimited, free, and confidential support by Retail Trust</li>
 <li>Access to training and development</li>
 <li>Reasonable travel expenses reimbursed</li>
 <li>Refreshments available</li>
 <li>Volunteer certificates, references and long service awards provided</li>
 <li>Access to discounts with other retailers</li>
