Volunteers are always welcome – please speak to our manager for more details about volunteering in the cafe or the shop. Some volunteers like a regular time slot but we also need those who can cover for holiday periods so there is no requirement to commit to a regular shift.

Earlams, Styal Community Store receives the Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service
Mr David Briggs MBE Lord Lieutenant of Cheshire presented the award to our volunteers, congratulations !
Earlam’s Chair John Novak says:
“We are very proud of all we have created at Earlams and delighted that our work has been recognised in this way, it pays tribute to the hard work and commitment of our volunteers.”
Styal has had a village store since the 1800’s and the new village store, café gallery which is a community run company and trades as EARLAMS was established by the villagers in 2014 to enhance Styal village life. It helps to create a sense of community that benefits the village as a place to live, work and visit.
Thanks to all our volunteers we can offer a shop, café and gallery for the local community. On the fifth anniversary of our opening we were thrilled to receive the Queens Award for Volunteers.
We have a fantastic team of volunteers who would welcome some new faces to share the shifts – especially in the holiday season to fill gaps when our regulars go away. Volunteer for one of three shifts during the day in the cafe, shop or gallery or even a turn in each. New volunteers shadow a volunteer for as many times as it takes to feel confident. Cafe shifts are in teams of 2 or 3. Training is given and we welcome anyone who is able to give our visitors a friendly welcome and excellent service.
If you do not receive regular emails from us as a shareholder or volunteer please leave your details in store – if you can print your name and email clearly please so that we can cross-check our existing lists
