Volunteering in the shop
Our Southport Shop Volunteers are in the middle of it all, and there’s plenty to get involved with. You might be sorting and pricing stock, engaging with customers, ringing items through the till, creating fantastic window displays or keeping our shop floor looking organised.

It’s up to you how much you commit. We have volunteers who support for a couple of hours a week and some do more. Many people volunteer either a morning or an afternoon each week - this is something that will be discussed at the selection stage, after you’ve applied.

Why volunteer with Save the Children?
In over 110 countries, we support children to transform their lives. By providing live-saving short-term help, and pushing for deep-rooted social change, we help children take, their future into their own hands. We believe every child has the right to learn. Every child should have good food to fuel their bodies and every child should have medicine when they're sick.

Skills and experiences we seek
We welcome applications from people with a wide range of skills and experiences. You don’t need any retail or shop experience as full training will be provided. What’s important to us is that you are a team player, open to learning and to follow our policies as well as be an excellent representative for Save the Children.

We know that our shop teams are stronger when they are inclusive and representative of their communities. 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 that works for you.

What happens next?
After you’ve filled in an application, we will invite you for an informal trial shift. It’s a great opportunity to visit the shop, meet some of our existing volunteers and have a go at some of the tasks that you would be supporting with as a shop volunteer. Hopefully allowing you to get a feel for the role and make sure it’s for you. We also ask for a couple of references (these don’t have to be formal workplace ones, just someone who has known you for over 6 months and isn’t related).

If you want to use your creativity to spark connection, hope and community, this role is calling you.

We’re growing — and we need a Graphic Designer who can help us shine visually as brightly as we do in the community.

Your designs will help people discover SUNSHINE, feel connected and know they’re not alone.

What You Bring

We’re a start‑up charity — so passion, creativity and initiative matter just as much as experience.

You’ll thrive in this role if you are:

• A creative thinker with a strong eye for design.

• Confident using design tools (Canva, Adobe Suite or similar).

• Someone who loves visual storytelling.

• Excited by the chance to shape a charity’s visual identity from scratch.

If this role excites you — even if you’re not sure you tick every box — we’d love to hear from you.

Join us in creating a London where no one feels forgotten, and where community truly means connection.

Apply today and help us design a brighter, more connected future.

We’re Looking for a Creative Hero — Is It You?

Our brand‑new East London charity is on a mission to unlock opportunities for adults who’ve been overlooked, underestimated, or left behind. Through career coaching, employability skills, mentoring, and real-world experiences, we’re building pathways that give people a genuine foot‑up — not just a pep talk.

But every movement needs a symbol. Every mission needs a mark. And that’s where you come in.

We need a volunteer designer to create our very first logo — a visual identity that captures hope, momentum, and possibility.

We imagine a design with unlocking rounded arrows, shaped by our two‑toned/fade orange palette — a colour that radiates positivity, future, energy, and opportunity. Something simple, modern, and full of purpose.

Why your contribution matters

Your work won’t just sit on a website. It will become the emblem carried by every CV workshop, every mentoring session, every programme, every success story. It will represent the moment someone in East London feels seen, supported, and ready to step into their future.

Your time commitment

Just a few hours. A small window for you — a huge leap forward for us.

If you believe in creativity with impact, this is your moment to shape a charity from day one.

Join us. Design the symbol that unlocks someone’s next chapter.
