Volunteer

Volunteers are the life blood of foodbanks. Your skills could be just what we need.

Volunteers are the driving force behind foodbanks. There are thousands of volunteers across the UK, helping The Trussell Trust Foodbank Network get emergency food to people in crisis. We want you to enjoy volunteering and there are lots of ways to get involved. Whatever role you choose, you will make a real difference to the life of someone in crisis.

Distribution Centre Volunteers

We need help to weigh, sort and store donated food before it’s made into parcels for clients to collect. You could help in this vital work to ensure we have the right food available at all times.  We also need drivers to drive the Foodbank Van, pick up food from all our drop-off points and make deliveries to our Centres.

Foodbank Centre Volunteers

Meet clients and give out food parcels. Have an informal chat with clients over a cup of tea, to discuss their situation and signpost to further support.

Cowdenbeath and Benarty Foodbanks are actively recruiting volunteers – if you are interested please email [email protected] for an application pack.

Marketing/PR Volunteers

Our local website, e-newsletters, and social media needs constant attention. Could your digital skills help communicate our message to a local and global audience? You will need to know a little about websites and ideally have experience of using WordPress (though training and support is available).
