Volunteer – Hesket Newmarket Community Shop

Hesket Newmarket Community Shop

Volunteer

Can you volunteer in the shop?

We have an amazing core team of volunteers who run our shop and post office. We also have people who help with some of the regular weekly tasks such as paper and grocery deliveries, and collecting stock from our wholesalers.

It takes a whole village to raise and run a village shop so do please get in touch. All help is gratefully received, whether you’d like a regular shift in the shop or would rather be out and about delivering or collecting for us.

You can speak with any of the Committee members for an informal chat about joining the team – see our contact page for details or fill out the form below.
