How you can get involved
Apply today to become a part of the friendly team in our Larkfield Distribution Centre.
Last year, our Demelza charity shops raised over £4 million to help fund our cause. This amount would have been absolutely impossible to achieve without the generosity of our dedicated volunteers.
Our shops are a treasure trove filled with quality goods and hidden gems just waiting to be found. With every item sold, we can continue to provide support for the many children and families within our care.
The Distribution Centre role includes ensuring our many shops are filled with good quality items to raise vital funds for Demelza. From sorting donations, picking stock, manoeuvring trollies and assisting our van drivers with their collections and deliveries. Pricing, labelling and packaging goods. Retail responsibilities include sorting, pricing, steaming, dealing with customers and enquiries. Signing donors up to Gift Aid and maintaining high standards of cleanliness, organisation and safety.
With your help, you can truly make a huge difference.
