Expenses for our volunteers

All volunteers are paid 'out-of-pocket' travel and food expenses. We may also be able to contribute towards childcare expenses, subject to the discretion of centre managers.

Travel:

If you work for at least four hours on any given day, you can claim your return bus or second-class rail fare to travel to the shop, up to a maximum of £4.

Food:

You can claim back food expenses to a maximum of £4, if you work for four hours or more.

Childcare:

Shelter will cover childcare costs to a maximum of £3.50 per hour, subject to the manager's discretion.
