Role Type: Charity Shops
Chest Heart & Stroke Scotland Charity Shop Unit 4, The Courtyard North Deeside Road Cults Aberdeen AB15 9ST
Everyone has the right to live life to the full. After a diagnosis of a chest or heart condition or a stroke, many people experience fear and isolation and struggle with the impact on their lives. Chest Heart & Stroke Scotland won’t stand for that. The care and support we deliver every day ensures everyone can live the life they want to. We currently have around 50 shops / community hubs across Scotland.
Our shops and hubs help us raise funds so we can provide our services to the people who need us. Every one of our stores relies on a team of volunteers to help run it and support our staff. By helping out in one of our stores, you can make a difference to people and their families in Scotland who are isolated, scared or anxious about their condition.

About Your Training and Development
