    Requirements

    Do you have any special needs that you want to share with us so that we can better serve you, for example: wheelchair access?*

    YesNo

    We work daily with a vulnerable population. Do you have any unspent convictions, cautions, reprimands or warnings as defined under the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act of 1974? Having a criminal record does not in all circumstances prevent someone from being recruited as a volunteer.*

    YesNo

    Our volunteer hours are from 09:00 until 13:00 Monday – Saturday and 17:00 – 19:30 on Monday, Tuesday and Friday evenings. Are you able to volunteer during these hours? Although we love having regular volunteers, there is no minimum number of shifts you will be required to sign up for.*

    YesNo

    Volunteering at the Soup Kitchen requires that you submit a current

    DBS check to our Volunteer Coordinator. Once you have filled out our volunteer form, please submit your DBS to [email protected]. Once we have received all of your information, you'll gain access to our online rota and you can sign yourself up to volunteer on days that fit your schedule.

    Referee
    Please add a referee that has known you for more than 2 years and is not a family member.
