United Church of Egham (RM)
Support a Local Literary Cause – Charity Bookstall Volunteer
United Church of Egham has hosted its monthly Charity Book Stall since 2000, helping bring affordable books to the community while raising funds for good causes. We're looking for dedicated volunteers to support us in two key areas:
1. Book Pricing (Fridays):
Use a simple app on your smartphone to price donated books—great for detail-oriented, tech-friendly volunteers.
2. Shifting & Lifting (Thursdays to Saturdays):
Help set up and take down the stall—some lifting required. Manual handling guidance provided on your first shift.
You can do either or both roles depending on your skills and availability.
Skills needed:
• For pricing: comfortable using a smartphone app
• For lifting: basic physical fitness, willingness to follow manual handling guidance
