Help to run our community shop and café
The shop and café will be managed by a full-time manager and staffed by our team of 40+ village volunteers
Who can volunteer?
The short answer is anyone. The shop and cafe are for the whole community and the wider the range of volunteers, the better.
There are no special skills or experience required. Older children and young people can volunteer and there is no maximum age.
If you have a disability we will do our best to adapt the work to accommodate your needs.
The most important role is to be friendly and helpful to visitors and customers and create a warm and welcoming atmosphere.
