Volunteering

Volunteering at Lighthouse

Or our other projects, Epping Reuse & Hopeworx

 

We provide volunteering opportunities for everyone over the age of 18 and also work with a range of local agencies to provide support for individuals that have been marginalised through ill health, long term unemployment or life experiences. Volunteering at Lighthouse can help gain confidence, rebuild self esteem, is very rewarding and according to our volunteers, fun.

The Volunteer Charter is our commitment to volunteers as we want you to have a positive experience whilst you are with us.

We recognise that everyone is different, you may be with us for a just a few weeks or you may be with us for longer (>16 years for one of our volunteers), above all else we value our volunteers and we would not be able to operate without them and achieve what we have.

When you contact us we will send you an application pack (or you can download it below) that we ask you to complete.  This should take no more than 10 minutes.  Once we have received the completed pack we will invite you to come and have an informal chat to explain what we do and to see if volunteering is right for you.  

We are urgently looking for volunteers who have experience in the following areas:-

  • Retail sales
  • Warehousing & logistics
  • Customer telephone enquiries
  • Administration
  • Promotions and marketing
  • Van driving and driver assistance
  • Furniture repairs
  • Appliance repairs
  • P.A.T. testing

If you would like more information, would like to ask questions about volunteering with Lighthouse or have a skill that you feel might be useful to us please send your details to info@lighthousefurniture.org

Please feel free to drop in and ask for the volunteer coordinator who will be happy to talk with you.
