Shop volunteer (Altrincham, Manchester)
I started volunteering at the Sale shop, my first regular volunteering role, in March 2025 after being a stay-at-home mum for eight years. In terms of my day-to-day role as a Shop Volunteer, I unpacked donations and operated the till. Volunteering built my confidence so much so, I applied for the shop manager role in Altrincham and got it!
