Food Train Shopping Companion

Food Train is a registered charity, voluntary organisation and social enterprise. Since 1995 Food Train has been making daily life easier for older people, providing vital services to those who are no longer able to manage independently.

Our aim is to support older people to live independently at home. Our preventative services address the difficulty older people face getting their weekly grocery shopping, doing jobs around the house and the growing isolation that comes with failing health. We also aim to provide a wide range of supported volunteering opportunities for people of all ages and abilities.

Would you like to volunteer to help older people in your local community?


We are looking for folk (drivers only) to volunteer to take an older person out to the shop for their grocery shopping.
