We wouldn’t be able to help the people of Yorkshire avoid and survive cancer without the efforts of hundreds of volunteers across the region. Your time is incredibly valuable to us, and every minute counts.
Interested in volunteering at our shops in Knaresborough, Northallerton and Tadcaster, or in our donation centre in Harrogate? Whether it’s working front of house welcoming and serving customers, keeping the shop floor tidy and fresh, or organising stock behind the scenes, our volunteers play an essential role in the smooth running of the shop and raising vital funds for Yorkshire Cancer Research.
