They are looking for two local volunteers to restart their Cowdenbeath Parent and Toddler Group.

That is why they put their faith into action by offering practical help for people without discrimination. They are looking for two local volunteers to restart their Cowdenbeath Snack/Connect groups. The format of The Salvation Army’s Snack/Connect groups are very relaxed and allow adults of differing ages to drop in for a bowl of soup or hot filled roll prepared in the building, or even just a coffee and chat. Some tasks a group assistant could be involved in are: • Welcoming and seating visitors • Explaining what is available and taking orders • Ensuring all orders are correctly served and payment received • Clearing up finished crockery and utensils and preparing tables for new visitors
