Volunteer
Help People. Learn New Skills. Join Our Team.
Whether you can spare a few hours now and then or are looking to volunteer more regularly, we’d love to welcome you to the CARE UK Charity team.
We offer retail volunteering opportunities in both our Warrington and Runcorn charity shops, as well as behind-the-scenes volunteering at our main Warrington depot. From helping on the shop floor to sorting donations and preparing deliveries, our volunteers are at the heart of everything we do, and there’s a role for everyone.
Why Volunteer?
Volunteering doesn’t just help us, it helps you too. Many of our volunteers tell us it has boosted their confidence, improved their well-being, and brought a real sense of purpose and community.
Here’s what you can gain:
Make new friends and feel part of something meaningful
Learn new skills and gain valuable experience for your CV
Support your local community in a hands-on way
Have fun while making a real difference
