2 Take part in the volunteering day

When you’ve decided on the volunteering opportunity that is for you, simply call the contact name and arrange a mutually convenient time for you to volunteer!

Make sure you ask about appropriate clothing and footwear for the day, if there is anything that you specifically need to volunteer and any other questions you may have. On the day itself, don’t forget to take refreshments – like a packed lunch and a bottle of water – and a camera to take photos of you ‘in action’ and the group itself. Please ask permission before taking any photographs as this may be sensitive to the group you are volunteering for.

3 Tell us how it went

Fill in the form below and let us know how your volunteering day went!  We’d also like one volunteer from every team to email Adelle Scott at adelle.scott@thebodyshop.com the list of all volunteers who took part and how long for.  Don’t be shy: we want to name and fame you all!
