Charity registered in Scotland SC037833
CFINE improves health and well-being and the environment, tackles poverty and builds resilience through a range of support and services for and with disadvantaged, vulnerable, low-income individuals, families and communities in NE Scotland.
Current opportunities
At Community Food Initiatives North East we are currently looking for volunteers who can take on some key roles within our charity, focusing on developing our current structures to meet the changing needs of our disadvantaged and vulnerable beneficiaries.
This includes the opportunity to join our great volunteer team as a Fundraising Committee Member. Fundraising is key to our work; we aim to continually innovate and expand our offering to ensure our disadvantaged communities are never left behind. We would like someone to assist on our fundraising committee to identify new ideas and opportunities to maximise local fundraising efforts, help to plan and coordinate group fundraising activities, promote fundraising events and initiatives in the local community and will commit to our vision of a UK without food insecurity and poverty.
A fantastic opportunity to volunteer at an award winning charity and social enterprise. All help makes a real difference and is greatly appreciated.
For more information and to discuss further please contact Kevin Mathew, FareShare Sustainability Development on email KMathew@cfine.org
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

Volunteers are always welcome at CFINE and we can offer a range of opportunities tailored to suit each individual.
Volunteering is about giving - time, ideas, experience, expertise - but it is also about receiving. For example, you will grow in confidence, learn new skills, meet people and can develop social networks and you will feel good contributing to your community, to tackling vulnerability and disadvantage.
Volunteers can be involved in a range of ways:
- Warehouse duties
- Stock control
- Fruit & veg packing
- Selling at community food outlets
- Weekend events, e.g. galas & food fairs
- Financial management and administration
- Customer care, serving at the food bank
- Data management
- Marketing and PR
- Driving
Good support is provided to all volunteers. Induction and start up training. All volunteer help is greatly appreciated.
