Do you have an eye for visual merchandising and a good knowledge of crafting, fabric or fashion design? We're looking for retail volunteers to support with our monthly craft & fabric sales by preparing stock and creating eye-catching displays.
We run regular sales events selling crafting materials, fabric and linens that are pre-loved or donated by businesses. We are looking for volunteers who are interested in supporting these events by sorting, pricing and preparing stock and creating eye-catching displays. This role would be a great fit for someone who has a real passion for fashion, knowledge of different fabric types and crafting accessories, an eye for detail and understands basic principles of visual merchandising. This is a specialist opportunity that sits within our Retail Volunteer role. If you are interested in this opportunity, please apply for the Retail Volunteer role on the Barnardo's website and include that you are interested in crafts and fabric on your application form.
