Charity calls for volunteers
AS part of Sue Ryder Care's ongoing Perfect Fit volunteer recruitment campaign, the charity is appealing for people looking for employment to volunteer at its 11 shops across Devon.
Tracey Mealing, Sue Ryder Care's Volunteering Manager, said: "Volunteering used to be something that people did when they retired. Over the years though, volunteering has evolved and become more diverse and professional - and recognises that it needs to be a mutually beneficial activity.
"In today's increasingly socially responsible environment, volunteering is viewed in a positive way by prospective employers too.
"We would like to encourage school leavers, mums returning to work or those keen to develop their CVs to give it a go as volunteering will enable you to gain that all important work experience.
"By volunteering and taking on a job to support the charity, it means Sue Ryder Care can focus on delivering vital hospice, neurological and community-based care services to more people living with conditions including multiple sclerosis, Huntington's disease, acquired brain injury and cancer."
