Training details

Before your first time volunteering with us, you will complete two forms, including a Food Hygiene Questionnaire. You will also need to attend a very informal induction, which involves a health and safety tour of the site, time to learn more about the roles available, and to answer any questions you might have. As a Cleaning Team volunteer, you will receive chemical training and be supported by another volunteer for your first number of shifts, to make sure you feel comfortable in the role.
