Volunteer at our shop in Downham Market – help local people to shop locally!
Our popular shop in Downham Market needs more assistants to join the friendly team. It’s a great way to get involved in your local community, meet new people, and help us make the most of good quality donated items.
There are lots of different tasks – you could be helping customers with their purchases, sorting through donations or helping create an attractive floor or window display.
On Monday afternoons we need more people to sort through new goods, getting them ready to be put on sale. Tuesday afternoons and Fridays we’d welcome people who are willing to take cash and card payments at the till. Saturdays are particularly busy, so you’d be asked to operate the till or process donated goods.
If you’ve worked in a shop before that’s ideal but you’ll get all the training you need in the shop.

We need more volunteer drivers to help with this vital service – Monday to Friday.
Our Patient Transport service provides a safe and efficient, high quality transport service for patients, their families and their carers – from their homes to the hospice, and back home again. This may be for day therapy assessments and groups, bereavement or family support, complementary therapies or any other service offered by the hospice.
Using one of the hospice vehicles, or your own, you’ll pick passengers up at a prearranged time and take them from their home to the hospice. Most times, you’ll wait and take them home again.

Join our retail team in Fakenham and help create a lively and attractive place for locals to shop. We particularly need a volunteer to cover the till on Tuesday mornings 9am – 1pm and on Saturday afternoons 1pm – 5pm.
This popular shop in the heart of Fakenham needs more volunteers to help customers with their purchases. It would be great if you could make a regular commitment for the hours you’re happy to come in – this could be as little as one or two hours at a time if you can’t manage a full four hour shift.
You’ll be providing invaluable help with the running of the shop, keeping it stocked and attractively displayed. You can get involved as much or as little as you like by sorting out stock, putting your own stamp on the shop displays, serving customers at the till. If you’ve worked in a shop before that’s ideal but we’d also like to hear from people who are willing to learn new skills.
