We are Alex, The Leukodystrophy Charity (Alex TLC).
Alex TLC is a trusted and experienced organisation offering support and information for all those affected by a genetic leukodystrophy. Formerly ALD Life, an internationally recognised centre of excellence for people affected by adrenoleukodystrophy and adrenomyeloneuropathy, the charity was established in 2004.
Due to popular demand, we extended our services to support all leukodystrophies in 2019 and became Alex, The Leukodystrophy Charity.
Like many other small charities, we have grown organically from an informal support group to the recognised voice for adrenoleukodystrophy patients and their families. Our charitable work is supported by our chain of five charity shops across south east London.
With scant resources we are always in need of trustworthy and reliable volunteers to assist retail staff.
Could you spare a few hours a week?
This is a wonderful opportunity to learn new skills and meet new people.
We need help to give hope and support to people affected by leukodystrophy – could you be that help?
ABOUT THE ROLE
We are looking for volunteers who can:
- sort and clean stock
- serve customers
- create eye catching displays
- identify potentially valuable stock
ABOUT YOU
Candidates should be able to demonstrate the following:
- an interest in Alex TLC and the work that we do
- honesty and trustworthiness
- reliability
- enthusiasm
The role is located in any of our five shops in Forest Hill, Greenwich, Peckham, Penge or Walworth Road.
