Tuk In Volunteers (Cooks and Servers)

  • VO68542

Description

Could you see yourself driving a Tuk Tuk around the streets of Aberdeen? Would you like to help CFINE deliver an exciting new project? Then this could be just the opportunity for you!

CFINE are looking for volunteers to get involved in our latest initiative. ‘Tuk In’ is a mobile community café that will be run out of the back of an electric Tuk Tuk, using fresh in date food that would have otherwise been destined for landfill, it will visit various community hubs around the city. ‘Tuk In’ will combat food poverty and food waste, and it will also make services available through CFINE accessible to customers.

We need Drivers, Cooks, and Servers for this exciting project and all help is greatly appreciated. If you are interested, email Sean on smcveigh@cfine.org or call on 01224596156

Charlie House Volunteers

*Volunteer with Charlie House and give the gift of time* Thousands of volunteers across the North-east of Scotland make an amazing contribution to the third sector and provide vital hours of support to charities and the families which they support. Our volunteers are an integral and invaluable part of Team Charlie House. Every single hour they contribute makes a difference to the babies, children, young people and families we support. As we develop our range of services to support even more families across the region, we are looking to expand our team of Charlie House volunteers. Some of our volunteers gift an occasional hour or two, some a whole day, and some make a regular commitment every week or month. We have a wide range of volunteering opportunities available for each and every individual, based on their available time.
