  Greenwich and Bexley Cottage Hospice

  Jul 2015 - Sept 2015

  I started this job to help gain experience within the health and social care sector as this was originally what I wanted to do after finishing school. I also have had family and friends cared for by this hospice and so wanted to thank them by volunteering at the charity shop once a week. I thoroughly enjoyed this job as it also helped me to gain experience within the retail and charity sector. My job was to sort through all the donations that came in and create price tags for them to be displayed in the store. Show less
