About Enable Ireland - Sligo

Enable Ireland provides free services to children and adults with disabilities and their families. Covering childhood to adulthood our expert teams work with the individual and their family on a plan for each life stage.

Our services for children and their families cover all aspects of a child's physical, educational, and social development from early infancy through adolescence. For adults we offer a range of services covering personal development, independent living, supported employment, social and leisure activities.

The demand for our services continues to increase throughout Ireland.

What's Involved

We are looking for Volunteers to get involved either on the shop floor or preparing stock upstairs.

• Day to day running of shop

• Merchandising of stock
• Stock presentation
• Stock control – including pricing and tagging
• Cash control
• Manual handling

We have a great group of volunteers of all ages and backgrounds and would love some new people to join the team. We are open to any time you feel you can give.

By volunteering in our charity shop you are helping us to raise vital funds to keep our services running.
