Community Street Collection Team Volunteer

We’re looking for friendly, reliable volunteers to help with street and shop front collections in their local area. These collections raise vital funds for Dorothy House, and your time and enthusiasm will help make sure they run smoothly and feel welcoming to the public.

This is a simple, social role that has a big impact on the care we can provide.

What you will be doing

• Taking part in organised street or shop front collections in your community
• Helping to find new places where collections could take place
• Being a warm, friendly presence for members of the public
• Making sure collection buckets are handled safely and returned as instructed

The skills you need

• Enjoy chatting with people and being out in the community
• Approachable, positive and confident speaking to the public
• Reliable and understanding of the importance of handling donations responsibly
• Enjoy being part of a team
• Trustworthy and happy to operate independently
• Likes practical tasks and keeping things running smoothly
• Takes pride in supporting a local cause

What's in it for you

• A rewarding way to support hospice care in your community
• Full training and ongoing support from the Dorothy House team
• The chance to meet new people and build confidence
• Reimbursement of agreed out of pocket expenses

Please note: 

You’ll volunteer in your local area — at shops, on high streets, at community events, and anywhere collections are taking place.

Volunteers need to be over 18 years old and will be expected to use their own transport and should have access to a car. Mileage or transport costs will be reimbursed.

Applications are welcomed from all sections of the community.
