We have volunteering
opportunities available now! Here are examples of the positions that
our volunteers undertake:
VAN PORTER - Minimum commitment
7 hours per week (weekdays, 9am to 4.00pm). We need people to go
out & about on our van and help to collect and deliver furniture
& electrical goods. You need to be reasonably fit bearing in mind
you will be lifting and carrying.
STORE RECEPTIONIST - Minimum commitment
7 hours per week (weekdays, 9am to 4.00pm). We need people to staff
our reception desk: greet customers, complete paperwork, take money
and arrange deliveries. You'll need to be outgoing and have pretty good
literacy and numeracy skills. Geographical knowledge of West Cornwall
and cash handling experience are a bonus, but by no means essential!
STORE ASSISTANT - Minimum commitment
7 hours per week (weekdays, 9am to 4.00pm). We need people to keep
the store tidy and to assist our customers: sweeping, dusting, helping
to carry light objects and wrapping any delicate purchases. Enthusiasm
is far more important than skills and experience in this role!
OFFICE RECEPTIONIST - Minimum commitment
7 hours per week (weekdays, 9am to 4.00pm). We need people to staff
the telephone: give customers information about goods in the store and
arrange collections. You'll need to have a good telephone manner, good
communication skills and reasonable literacy skills. A basic geographical
knowledge of West Cornwall is essential.
OTHER TASKS - These are the major
roles at SOFA, to give you a rough idea of the sorts of opportunities
available. But if you'd just like to give us a helping hand whatever
your skill level then just give us a call for more information.
