Retail volunteers

Do you have some spare time to volunteer in an Acorns shop?

We currently have 53 shops within the region and we like to think of them as ‘Area Offices’ for Acorns. Within the shops there are nearly 1,500 volunteers who all play a vital role in the awareness of Acorns and are an important factor to the day to day duties that help to make the shops the success they are.

Our retail volunteers take on many different roles in the shops. They may choose to help out at the front serving customers, where some are happy to stay in the back area of the shop helping to sort out the many bags of donations that the shops receive on a daily basis. The process of the goods, from when they are first received, right through to when the item is sold.

If you would like to help out at your local Acorns shop, you can apply direct at your local shop: a list of our shops with contact details is available here. Alternatively please contact our retail team on 01564 825027 or email This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
