Our Morningside Save the Children Shop has been a much loved part of the local community for years and continues to be hugely popular, thanks to the kindness and generosity of the volunteer led team.
All you need is some enthusiasm and a desire to make a difference. The role is diverse, taking place on the shop floor and behind the scenes. Volunteer activities include customer service, creative merchandising, preparing items for sale and working as part of a team.
Save the Children is the world's independent children's rights organisation. We're outraged that millions of children are still denied proper healthcare, food, education and protection and we're determined to change that.
