Reviews
As a volunteer at an RSPCA Charity Shop
Work was very relaxed and did not require a lot of effort. Mostly consists of organising stock on shelves, making sure it is placed correctly, cleanup if necessary, accepting donations, and working at the cash register. Very simple volunteer work.
Pros
Easy work
Okay place for work experience
Management is poor, they don’t really seem to appreciate the work of the volunteers. Unhappy place, staff don’t seem to enjoy it there. Basic tasks such as walking and play with dogs. Good chance to experience different breeds and personalities.
Great place to work
I really enjoyed my five years working here, great place to work, fair pay and the organisation really looks after their staff. It’s a very rewarding job.
Fun and very Active workplace
Animal care assistants work really hard on a day to day basis. This job is physically demanding and involves lots of outdoor work. I worked with a great team at Brent knoll branch who are committed to finding every animal a loving home. Overall a great place to work if you are prepared to put in a good days work! Very rewarding only downside is low pay but as expected due to being a charity. Definitely recommend working here!
Pros
Days spent with dogs and cats
Cons
Low pay
Rewarding job
