Volunteering with Shelter and Shelter Scotland
Volunteers are a vital part of our work. We help millions of people every year struggling with bad housing or homelessness through our advice, support, and legal services. And we campaign to make sure that one day, no one will have to turn to us for help.

Eligibility to volunteer
Just so you know, the minimum age for volunteering with us in our shops is 14 years. We'll ask you to confirm as part of your application that you are aged 14 or over. Our young volunteers are always supervised by two adults, one of which will have the appropriate level of criminal record check in place. In Retail if you are volunteering under the age of 16, the maximum time you can give to volunteering with us, is 2 hours per shift.
