Posting and Packing Volunteer

Our charity funds around £100 million of research each year into all heart and circulatory diseases and the things that cause them. Heart diseases. Stroke. Vascular dementia. Diabetes. They’re all connected, and they’re all under our microscope. Our volunteers help us fund lifesaving science to improve the lives of families and loved ones living with heart and circulatory disease. Volunteering with us is easy, flexible, and inclusive. If you can spare a few hours a week, or a couple of hours occasionally, we’d love you to join our volunteer team.

Come and help make sure our online customers receive their purchases promptly and in a well packaged condition. If you have good attention for detail and like to work in a methodical way, the role of packing and posting volunteer could be the one for you. You will be carrying out a key role within the online sales team helping us continue to fund life saving research.
