VOLUNTEER
VOLUNTEER
Common Press CIC is seeking volunteers who can support us during this time of change and growth. Our volunteers support our small and friendly team on ad hoc basis. Depending on their availability and capacity, the volunteers usually support during our weekday events in the evenings or weekend support as booksellers. We are an intersectional queer space and our community has been a strong anchor of support for us over the years. We welcome them and our allies to volunteer in the way they may wish to. Volunteering at Common Press can be an empowering way to form new connections, have access to our range of lgbtq+ events/socials and taste our fantastic coffee & be cosy. Once you sign up, we will add you to our volunteer mailers, and you will hear from us regarding the ad hoc volunteer opportunities available.
