We are looking for friendly and organised volunteers to assist with sorting, washing and drying laundry, as well as keeping our laundry room tidy. This is an important role as the supply of clean bedding, towels and toys is essential for the welfare of our animals. You will be helping us keep them comfortable, warm and entertained.
In addition to making a difference to the animals in our care, you will get to know our friendly team and gain further insight into how the Home runs.
Our volunteer requirement is on Monday, Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday between the hours of 09:00-16:00. A weekly commitment of 2-3 hours is preferred.
Role Profile
As a laundry room assistant, you will support our staff and animals by washing towels, blankets and animal bedding. In addition to this, you will sort through the donated bedding and towels we receive and decide what items we can keep, what can be recycled and what we need to throw away, endeavouring to waste as little as possible. You will also be ensuring that the laundry room is always kept clean and tidy and checking that machines are in proper working order.
Your activities will include:
- Cleaning and drying any laundry that is generated during the daily running of the centre
- Folding and storing clean laundry which will include bedding and towels, toys and vet beds from our recovery suite
- Sorting donated bedding and towels, deciding which can be used, recycled or disposed of
- Keeping the laundry room tidy
- Reporting any issues with the washing machines or tumble dryers to our site maintenance team
About You
This can sometimes be a messy task, so a willingness to get your hands dirty is essential as you will sometimes be cleaning soiled blankets, towels and vet beds used in our recovery suite. There is a manual handling element of the role, so this should be considered upon application.
You don’t need to have any prior experience, you will be given full onsite training on how to use our machines and where everything goes.
All volunteers are required to complete online Health & Safety training prior to their start date. Due to insurance restrictions, all volunteers must be over the age of 18.
Through advice and support in the community, to rescue, rehabilitation and rehoming at our centre, we positively transform the lives of pets.
