Volunteering

Opportunities

Our volunteers play an important role, whether that is engaging with customers in the Cafe, shop, or distributing food. On this page find out about current volunteering opportunities and read about the benefits of getting involved through the words of some of the volunteers.

Volunteer!

In the Community Cafe we train our volunteers to gain new skills, including customer Service, Barista-Style Coffee making, food preparation, hygiene and first aid certifications.

The essential work-place skills of team-working and interaction with the public develop the attitudes, approaches and transferable skills that employers hold in high regard. 

Through their involvement in the cafe many former volunteers had their confidence reignited and skills sharpened which launched them into their next paid role.

  • Food preparation.
  • Basic Barista training.

    Cafe Volunteer
    It is a good place to work as it gives me lots of experience in catering...I am really enjoying learning how to cook, it's nice to meet people and get to know the volunteers.

Volunteer in the Shop

There are opportunities volunteer in our new Community shop which is next door to the cafe. If you have some time to give and are looking to serve our local community, we would love to hear from you.

Volunteering in the Community Shop is a way to build your confidence in serving the public and gain retail-related skills which will prepare you for moving into work. For those who just wish to volunteer their time, it is an opportunity to meet people, make friends and serve the local villages.
