BARNSLEY hospice are appealing for more volunteers to help out at it's donation centre in Dodworth.

The centre acts as a drop-off point and warehouse to store stock centrally, and there are currently 47 volunteers at the centre, which is based opposite KDA Warehouse on Fall Bank Industrial Estate.

Stephen Hatfield, retail manager at Barnsley Hospice, said: “We simply couldn’t manage without our volunteers here at Dodworth, and it’s vital that we find more people who are able to spare some time – even just a few hours a week – to help."

Duties include accepting donations of clothing and bric-a-brac from members of the public, encouraging Gift Aid, sorting stock in the warehouse, helping in the retail outlets, and assisting with furniture deliveries.
