Volunteering Opportunities

Overgate Hospice is an independent, local charity with a mission to ensure that our patients and those caring for them live the best possible life.
About the Organisation
Our charity shops raise vital funds to keep the hospice open. We have 16 charity shops throughout Calderdale, including specialist children’s shops - We have hundreds of volunteers who make it possible for us to serve Calderdale.
Volunteers support the paid member of staff by serving customers, using the till, sorting, pricing and displaying donations and organising stock rotation on the shop floor. Volunteers also clean shelves and dust bric-a-brac and toys when required.
Volunteers either serve customers, promote gift aid and use the till on the shop floor, or work in the first floor sorting area sorting and pricing donations then bringing them down the stairs to display on the shop floor, rotating stock when necessary.
