Food Preparation Assistant

  • VO100005


Description

No matter how good our services are, we can't properly support our users/community well if we don't have skilled people in the team. If this sounds like you?... we would love you to consider volunteering with us for a few hours per week.

Our friendly kitchen is an ideal place for you to put your preparation skills to great use -someone who can prepare food prior to cooking, desirable Food Hygiene certificate or willing to work towards one, experience in a kitchen although not essential, cleaning work area before handling food, washing, peeling and chopping vegetables, dicing meat and storing prepared food to ensure freshness.

So, whether you are looking to use your time well, update your skills or have the chance to do something a bit new, we would love to hear from you. In return, we can offer you a warm welcome and all of the support and help you could need.
We are seeing a rise in demand for our services, everyday. Having your help will allow us to be there for the people who need us. Any time you can give will make a real difference.
