Habitat ReStore Volunteering

Opis

Volunteers will be involved in a range of activities in Habitat ReStore Drogheda depending on the skills and interest of the volunteer and specific needs of the organisation during the placement. Activities include retail operations such as customer service, supporting with the collecting of donations, displaying of stock, sorting and pricing of donations within the ReStores. There is an opportunity to be involved in helping support volunteers with a learning disability and those with mental health challenges. Volunteers will also support Habitat’s House to Home programme which supports those who have been homeless or at risk of homelessness. This includes painting and decorating. You should note that the work in ReStore and on House to Home is hands-on and can be physically demanding. There may also be an opportunity to engage in Habitat's broader work during the placement, this could include activities such as assisting with the school's work or helping raise awareness.

Ubytovanie, strava a doprava

The volunteers will live in shared accommodation in Drogheda. Each volunteer will have their own bedroom, and cooking, living and bathroom facilities will be shared. Volunteers will purchase food and cook own meals - expenses will cover food costs. Volunteers will travel to the ReStore by foot, bike or use public transport if required. If public transport is required, the organisation will cover these journeys. Exact details will be confirmed closer to the time.
