Distribution Centre – Flexible worker

Description
The Distribution Centre (DC) is the hub for all donations to the hospice. It is a 12,000 sq foot warehouse where we sort all donations and distribute items to our retail shops. We also sell stock online via eBay and then package the sold items securely and send them on to the customer from the DC. We pride ourselves in getting the right product in the right place at the right time for the right price.

Sorting – sorting through a variety of donated items that are delivered to the DC to be sent to shops. This includes clothing, bric a brac, toys, books and electricals
