Association of Charity Shops
We are the only member organisation dedicated to supporting charities who run shops as part of their fundraising activities. By pooling expertise and joining forces to promote common interests, we help members to operate their shops as effectively as possible. Members range from the largest national charities to locally based hospices.

Description
We are a member organisation set up to support charities with shops. Our main role is to provide information, advice, support and training to members and other charities. We currently have around 260 members operating around 6500 shops.
Our current volunteering opportunity is to carry out a survey into the use of our website by our members. We have noticed that there are a number of members not using our website or using very infrequently and would like to find out more about their reasons for not using the website. We also want to find out about any ways we can improve the website and any useful features/information we can add to it. We aim to do this by carrying out a telephone survey.
