Can you spare 2-3 hours on a weekend? Could you be the friendly face of our British Heart Foundation store in Brislington? With support around you and full training provided, you will be processing sales through the till as a cashier, talking to customers on the shop floor and helping them with queries, and thanking every donor - helping us continue to fund life-saving research into heart disease!

This is a customer-focussed role where you will meet and interact with a wide range of people with lots of support available from the shop staff. It's a great way to buidl confidence, meet new people and be part of hard-working, friendly team!

**3 HOUR SHIFTS AVAILABLE TO SUIT YOU SATURDAYS OR SUNDAYS!**

Typical tasks include:

· Engaging with customers and serving them in a helpful and friendly way, helping with shop displays and presentation

· Answering questions from customers, donors and supporters with support from shop staff

· Communicating with fellow volunteers about what has sold and needs re-stocking

· Honing your retail and cashier skills behind the till and taking payments

· Helping with administration and reception duties around the till area

· Promoting Gift Aid and sales campaigns


Volunteering with the British Heart Foundation comes with plenty of benefits too…

· A 25% discount on donated goods and 10% discount on New Goods in our shops

· Unlimited, free, and confidential support by Retail Trust

· Access to training and development

· Reasonable travel expenses / mileage reimbursed if you volunteer for 3 hours per shift

· Refreshments available and free parking available on site

· Volunteer certificates, references and long service awards provided

· Access to discounts with other retailers

Just so you know, we are unable to accept volunteers aged under 17 or with unspent criminal convictions. Please note this is an unpaid voluntary position in a friendly charity shop.
