We are entirely volunteer led and run; we offer some great volunteering opportunities as part of our dedicated, friendly team. We don't have any one-off volunteering opportunities but would love to hear from you if you can commit an hour or so a week or be available on an ad hoc basis.
At the moment we need: 
  • Drivers who can deliver food parcels to local people on a Monday, Wednesday or Friday, as back-ups to our regular teams.
  • Someone who can help us with local fund-raising and community awareness activities.
  • Someone with good IT skills, particularly with Excel or database knowledge to help maintain and develop our record keeping system. 
  • Someone to help with volunteer recruitment, training and support. 
  • Someone willing to train as a team leader to join the team as a backup for the regular 3 team leaders. 
  • Client liaison team members - dealing with requests for help by phone , text etc.
If any of these opportunities are of interest, or if you would like to know more about volunteering with us please do get in touch. 

Contact us via by ​ We will try to get back to you the next day that the food bank is open (Monday, Wednesday or Friday). If you use email or Facebook Messenger, please include a phone number if possible.
