We have a fantastic team of volunteers at Thames Hospice and we'd love for you to join us! It costs £8 million per year to run the Hospice; that's where our eBay Assistants play a crucial part in enabling us to offer our services to patients and their families for free. eBay Assistants help us to raise funds in our Online Sales Department by carrying out a variety of interesting tasks. Volunteering is a fun and sociable way to put your skills to good use or learn new skills, all while making a massive difference to the lives of patients in your local area.
Tasks Include:
Researching and identifying appropriate items for sale on our e-bay store
Packing and posting customer parcels
Customer service skills including dealing with questions and queries
Copy writing article descriptions
Creating listings on eBay
Photography
