Introduction

Book Sorting & Processing Volunteer

Love books, enjoy being part of a team, or simply want to make a difference in your local community? Join our friendly Distribution team and help turn donations into vital care for local families.

We're looking for enthusiastic volunteers to join us at our friendly Distribution Centre on Teignmouth Road, Torquay. Whether you're looking to meet new people, learn new skills, stay active, or simply give something back to your community, we'd love to welcome you.

  • Preparing and organising stock for our shops.
  • Sorting books and researching valuable titles for sale through our online platforms. (full training provided)
  • Helping to maximise recycling and reduce waste.
  • Keeping our workspace area safe, tidy and well organised.
  • Supporting the team with a variety of day-to-day Distribution activities.

Flexible volunteering hours are available to fit around your other commitments.
