From November 2023 onwards, Dobbies will be hosting monthly '5 star weekends' to raise money for Teenage Cancer Trust. Could you boss a bucket to help us give every young person facing cancer the best care and support?

What You'll Do: 

Where:  Dobbies, Yarm Road, Stockton-on-Tees, TS18 3SQ

When:  Saturday 16th and Sunday 17th December

Times: Shifts are 11am-1pm or 1pm-3pm

 

You will collect cash donations from shoppers, show them how to use the 'Text to Donate' service or direct them to the tills for card donations.

Help raise awareness and engage the public with our work.

Be a friendly and approachable face of the charity.

Why You'll Love It: 
You'll get support from in-store Dobbies staff while on site and a dedicated member of on-call staff from Teenage Cancer Trust (over the phone). Ultimately help Teenage Cancer Trust to reach more young people with cancer. Out of pocket expenses reimbursed in line with our volunteer expenses policy.
What We're Looking For: 
A positive and friendly attitude. Confidence engaging with members of the public. Enthusiasm for the work of Teenage Cancer Trust. Reliability and punctuality.
