The Scottish Pantry Network champions a creative model and strength-based approach to tackle food insecurity that offers a ‘shopping experience’ to individuals and their community. Pantry members are not required to explain their personal circumstances, and memberships are open to everyone in the community. The Pantry model is based on a membership system where shoppers choose their own food items. This approach is designed to be inclusive and not to differentiate and helps Pantries to be regarded as a local food outlet as opposed to a place to go for food support. The need for providing basic support including food is increasing dramatically, as has the risk of poor mental health, social isolation, debt, relationship pressures and unemployment. TSPN members help to facilitate an effective way to provide food with dignity within local communities, helping make people’s budgets go further, and increasing community engagement and cohesion, while reducing large scale food waste. The Admin Assistant role will assist staff members in an administrative capacity to support the delivery of the project as a whole. Administrative Duties: - Contribute to Marketing, Events and Community Engagement - Admin filing paperwork: assisting in developing and implementing new administrative systems - Respond to email enquiries - via website and email - General office and admin duties - Update social media If you are interested, please contact enquiries@scottishpantrynetwork.org.uk
