Volunteer Cafe Host

• Village Kitchen CIC

• VO101058

BACKGROUND

The Village Kitchen is a service that delivers frozen meals around Clackmannanshire on a Tuesday and a Friday. They were set up during Covid due to the difficulty the older people in the community had with getting to the supermarket. After Covid there was still a demand for their services so have continued offering the support.

As well as delivering meals, they set up a Thursday cafe and now have 30-35 people attending on a weekly basis. They engage with their guests, offer any support that they can and help to build up friendships to avoid isolation at home. Once a month they take a number of guests out on a bus trip to various places in the Forth Valley area.

As a Cafe Host, you will be helping to set up such as laying out tables at the Hive in Dollar ahead of the Thursday Café. You will also engage with their guests when they arrive and during their time at the café. You will also be serving the guests as well as tidying up afterwards (11.15am - 2.30pm).

Everything works on a rota system and volunteers can do as much or as little as suits them, dipping in and out of all aspects of our work or sticking to the one area, it's up to them.

Experience required

The Village Kitchen are looking for genuine, kind, caring people who are willing to help and can work in a team. No experience is necessary.
