Van Volunteers Needed
We urgently need the help of volunteers to support our rubbish and delivery vans.
Our van drivers have been working hard to complete pick-ups of all the generous donations from the community, plus get rid of rubbish to keep our staff, volunteers, and customers safe while in the shops.
We've had some great volunteers move on to paid work (which we love!) so we are now short on help to complete the growing workload.
If you or someone you know could help us out, please get in touch!
