Oxfam Summer Volunteer

The summer can be of our busiest time especially during the Edinburgh Fringe and all the other festivals that happen around August. But it is also the time of year when we have the least volunteers to help keep the shop going.

If you have time to spare and you would like to lend a hand it is a great way to:

Meet new people

Be part of a friendly team

Help Oxfam make a positive change to the world

Opportunity to utilise and develop your transferable skills

Gain genuine experience working in a retail environment

Roles can include:

Sorting donations including checking and pricing

Serving customers on the till

Create stylish window displays

Supporting the shops social media

Keeping the shop fully stocked

Helping donors as they come in

No experience is necessary as full training will be given, all we ask is that you're happy to work as part of a diverse and inclusive team. At Oxfam we know that everybody can make a real difference. People come to us for all sorts of reasons, from all backgrounds, and we will do what we can to find a role which works for you.
