We are looking for volunteers who are interested in the following:

*Making up food parcels

*Weighing out of coffee, sugar etc. for our food parcels

*Helping to tidy up and put away donations

*Helping to hand out food parcels when we are open

We are looking for help Tuesday, Wednesday or Friday mornings

Our guests come to us for many different reasons, some have just fallen on hard times, others are isolated/ lonely and/or suffer with addiction and what we do allows the opportunity to share a hot meal with other members of the community in a warm, friendly environment and seek advice/support from our Support co-ordinator and other drop in services during sessions such as Turning point and the local Police.

Our Food parcels are designed to help individuals get by for a few days, we also provide access to our clothing bank.
