Christmas Kitchen Team Volunteer

NB: As part of this application, you'll be asked your availability and once you've applied, we'll assign you one or more shifts and will confirm these in plenty of time over email!

What is Caring at Christmas? It’s a pop-up day centre based at the Trinity Centre for people experiencing homelessness and in precarious housing situations – for example, people having to sleep rough, people currently living in hostels and temporary accommodation. From Christmas Eve, through to December 30th (daytime) we provide a warm and friendly environment, with breakfast, dinner, and resources including access to support and healthcare, a cinema, activities, and opportunities to socialise.

This shift will be based in the kitchen at Bristol Methodist Centre, helping to make sandwiches, basic food preparation and loading/unloading the dishwasher. This is not a client-facing role.

You will be working in a small team under the supervision of a team leader. Must be comfortable handling meat and dairy products.

Responsibilities include:

• Helping with meal preparation
• Preparing sandwiches and desserts
• Helping keep the food store tidy and hygienic
• Helping clean the kitchen
• Washing up
