General Volunteering

WARS is hugely grateful to all our fantastic volunteers who come and help us around the shelter with a whole range of jobs and tasks. Without their time and dedication we couldn’t do nearly as much to help the animals in our care.

Current Opportunities

Volunteer Retail Assistant
Location: Worcestershire Animal Rescue Shelter (WARS)

Our on-site charity shop, which has successfully offered new and pre-loved pet products for many years, is expanding. We’re introducing a second retail area that will include a wider variety of items such as household goods, clothing, miscellaneous treasures, and more. This development will allow us to better serve our loyal customers by offering an affordable and local shopping experience for both them and their beloved pets.

As a Volunteer Retail Assistant, you’ll be part of this exciting new chapter—helping with customer service, merchandising, and supporting the day-to-day running of the shop.

This is a new volunteer role within the shelter, so please read the job description carefully and apply via our application form. You will need to complete and download the application form and email it to: info@wars.org.uk

Once received, Amie, our Shelter Manager, will get in touch for a friendly, informal chat to discuss the role further and arrange a short interview.

We look forward to welcoming you to the WARS team!
