Our charity boutique

 

Ayoka would not operate without the dedication and support of our volunteers. They’re a huge part of why our customers keep coming back again and again.

Volunteering is a great experience, where you’ll gain valuable skills, knowledge and qualities you need to excel in the Charity sector. We’ve listed just some of the many skills you’ll gain below:

  • Communication skills: oral and written.

  • Organisational skills.

  • Commercial/business awareness.

  • Pro-activity and flexibility.

Join our community and sign up to volunteer below. You will be offered the opportunity to do a ‘taster session’ where Nigel will guide you through a typical day volunteering at Ayoka.

Email nigel@stmargaretshouse.org.uk for more information on how to apply.
