Saturday Shop Volunteers needed
We are looking for reliable volunteers to help out in our Variety Shop on Saturdays. The hours required for our new recruits are 9.30am-12.30pm or 12.30-3.30pm - you could do both shifts if that worked for you. We are looking for Shop Assistants and Sorters to organise donations and help price our goods ready for display in the shop, and assist customers with purchases and sales.
If you are interested please email patria.carter@dogwatch.co.nz for an application form (or you can find the application link on our Dogwatch website).
