We’d love for you to join the Sharewear team! Take a look at the photos below and explore the volunteering roles we have available. Getting started is simple, there’s no formal application. We’ll arrange a friendly call to show you around and give you a try out shift at a time that suits you.


Volunteering takes place at our Edwalton site, just near Notcutts Garden Centre. Shifts are flexible, Tuesday - Thursday, 9:30 am - 3:30 pm, and you can choose half or full days. We simply ask for a minimum of 3 hours per week, so it’s easy to fit around your schedule.


If none of the roles below are suitable for you at the moment, find ways to donate time with us.
