About New Chapters: New Chapters is Kisharon Langdon’s thriving online second-hand book business based in a busy 3,000 sq ft warehouse in Harrow. It provides meaningful work and training for autistic adults and adults with a learning disability, as well as the Langdon College students. Working alongside volunteers, they gain practical skills, such as sorting books, scanning stock, and preparing orders, while building confidence, independence, and readiness for future employment. Why We Need YOU - Collect donated books from homes and community drop-off points across North London and help bring them back to our warehouse. You'll be out and about in the New Chapters van (or your own car, if preferred and it is insured for business use), alongside one of our friendly members who is fully trained in manual handling. It's a great way to meet people, enjoy plenty of conversation, and help give books a second life! ???? - Help ensure a steady flow of stock for the warehouse team. - This flexible role is designed to fit around your schedule. The warehouse is open from 10:00am to 4:00pm Monday to Thursday (with shorter hours on Fridays). When there's a book collection or delivery to be made, the manager will get in touch and work with you to arrange a time that suits you. ???? - Directly support autistic adults and adults with learning disabilities in gaining workplace skills, independence, and experience through the New Chapters programme.
