• Customer service

• Processing transactions on the till (once trained)

• Replenishing the stock on the shop floor

• Or perfecting eye-catching displays to entice customers in!

There is opportunity for everybody to help with something.

It is a fantastic way to meet people, make new friends and build confidence.
