Volunteer

Lichfield Foodbank provides a minimum of three-day emergency food parcels to people in crisis, working in partnership with organisations across the community and is run entirely by volunteers.

Volunteers play a crucial role in the running of the food bank, from collecting and sorting donations to processing vouchers and helping to create a welcoming space for people in crisis.

Thank you for your interest in joining our team and helping people in crisis in our community. All available volunteering roles will appear on this page.

DRIVERS

Drivers play a fundamental role in the running of the food bank, collecting food donations from a variety of locations across the local area as well as distributing the sorted donations from the warehouse to the local food bank centres.

Do you have:

– have a van/car to use

– around 2.5 hours a week to volunteer (various times & days available to suit)

The work involves:

– loading food crates into your vehicle

– delivering it to our foodbank centres within Lichfield

– Transporting food from collection points to the warehouse for sorting, and finally onto one of our local foodbanks

A confident and safe driver, you’ll enjoy being part of a team and be physically strong so that you can lift and load crates of food. Your flexible and committed approach will help to maximise donations and improve the efficiency of the food bank.

 

For all the above vacancies – no experience is required, as all necessary training will be provided, however you will need to believe in the ethos of foodbanks and helping others in a non-judgemental way.
