Foodbank/Pantry Volunteer

The KLSB Community Group (Keeping Larbert and Stenhousemuir Beautiful)
VO94151

KLSB Community Group are based in Stenhousemuir. They carry out various initiatives for the benefit of the local community including running a foodbank/pantry, a community café, craft clubs, maintaining local flower beds as well as various seasonal events.
KLSB are looking for friendly, reliable volunteers to join their busy foodbank/pantry team in Stenhousemuir.
What you’ll be doing:

Welcoming and chatting with members

Checking stock dates (use by/best before)

Stocking shelves and organising donations

Light housekeeping to keep the space tidy

Working as part of a small, supportive team
Many of our members experience social anxiety, so a warm, patient and cheerful attitude is really important in this role. A smile and a kind approach make a huge difference.
Some tasks involve lifting donations and stock, so a reasonable level of fitness is needed. Full training will be provided — you don’t need experience, just the right attitude and willingness to help.
If you can spare a couple of hours a week and want to make a real difference in your local community, they would love to hear from you.

Experience required

No skills or experience but should be friendly and willing to work as part of a small team.
