Help Us Move Our Furniture & Electrical Project

As part of our move into the new DF4TA Resource Centre, we are looking for corporate volunteer teams to help us relocate our Furniture & Electrical Project from our previous storage locations into our new home.

This project provides essential household items to families and individuals across Derby, helping people turn a house into a home. To get the project fully operational in our new Resource Centre, we need volunteers to help us move furniture, electrical items and equipment over several weeks.

This is a fantastic hands-on opportunity for teams looking to make a real difference in the community.

Volunteer Roles Include

• Moving furniture items safely between locations
• Loading and unloading vans
• Assisting drivers with collections and deliveries
• Moving electrical items and household essentials
• Organising stock within the new DF4TA Resource Centre
• General lifting and carrying (heavy lifting involved)

We are looking for volunteer drivers and helpers:

• We do have our own van, volunteers can drive but they will have to provide DLVA driver check code prior to volunteering

• Companies able to provide vans (particularly larger vans) with a driver

• Volunteer helpers to support loading and unloading at least 3-4 each day

Dates Available

• To be conformed but August/September

Important Information

⚠️ This is a physical volunteering role and will involve lifting, carrying and moving furniture and electrical items.

Please wear:

• Sturdy closed-toe footwear
