Seamstress/Tailor
Oxfam Corporate Sourcing (Ealing Office)
Oxfam relies on donations from kind individuals and businesses to sell in our shops. All profit from the sale of these donations is used to help Oxfam fight poverty around the world. People who donate to Oxfam are being 'green' too because it means they are reducing landfill at the same time.Sometimes we receive particularly high quality or designer clothes where there might be a button missing or a broken zip, torn seam or undone hem on an otherwise perfectly saleable garment. We are looking for a volunteer, with their own sewing machine, who would like to carry out these repairs in their own time. This can be done at our office (if practicable) or in their own home.

Horsesmouth
Horsesmouth is a safe, purpose-built, confidential website for informal e-mentoring. We are looking for anyone who has an experience to share and is aged sixteen plus to volunteer and become a mentor.At sixteen or indeed 60 you may be wondering what qualifies you to be a mentor. Well you don't have to have any training or qualifications. Horsesmouth is not a professional advisory service. What it is, however, is a sounding board for those occasions in life when people really want to talk to someone whos been there and done that.So, if you have some time to spare (10 minutes or 10 hours) you can help support and inspire others by registering as a mentor. From starting a business to starting a family; from life with cancer to life as a carer; from which A level, NVQ or undergraduate course to whither an MBA; someone needs what you know. As a mentor you will be asked to complete a fairly thought provoking questionnaire. It shouldnt take any longer than 15 minutes to complete, but after its been approved you can get online and respond to calls for help.A key principle of the Horsesmouth site is that we all have something to give and gain so in addition to mentoring someone, you may find your own mentor on Horsesmouth.
