South Shields BHF Shop is appealing for local people to volunteer and join the fight against heart disease.
The South Shields British Heart Foundation (BHF) Furniture and Electrical Store on Ocean Road is looking for Heart Heroes of all ages who can spare their free time to volunteer.
Looking to boost your CV?
Volunteering is a great way to meet new people, boost your CV and help in the hunt for a new job. BHF Shops and Furniture & Electrical Stores awarded 800 NVQs in England and Wales last academic year. The charity is also an Approved Activity Provider with the Duke of Edinburgh Award (DofE) and currently has 900 young volunteers working towards their Gold, Silver or Bronze Award.
Improve your existing skills
Volunteering can help you to improve the skills you already have. Whether you’re looking for a career change, you’re retired or simply just have some spare time to give, the BHF has a wide variety of roles to suit you. BHF Furniture and Electrical Stores have a range of roles but are most in need of warehouse and sales assistants, customer service advisors, window dressers and office administrators who can help to arrange house collections.
