YMCA England: Helping young people build a future

Volunteering with the YMCA is a great way to learn new skills, have fun and meet new people.

We have over 800 volunteers in YMCA shops around the country. Our volunteers come from all walks of life and include students who want to contribute to the community, people who are retired and have some time to spare, and young people who want to gain retail experience to improve their CV.

Read a real-life story about how volunteering in a YMCA shop changed Marie's life.

You’ll be involved in:

• Sorting through clothes
• Pricing up stock
• Selling goods such as: clothing, shoes, books, DVDs, bric-a-brac and YMCA merchandise
• Collecting furniture and unwanted electrical items
• Dealing with members of the public
• Being the face of the YMCA on the high street
