Hestia
At Hestia we support adults and children in times of crisis.We deliver services across London and the surrounding regions, as well as campaign and advocate nationally on the issues that affect the people we work with.Last year we supported 15,238 men, women and children.
Description

We are looking for a volunteer to support us with collecting food donations from local stores. Do you enjoy being out and about in the community? The role would involve travelling to stores around the local area to collect food donations, and then delivering these to the service.

The donations will be approximately a bin bag full so may be more suitable for someone who drives and has a car but the locations are a few stops on the tube from the service. The locations of the collections are around Victoria and Waterloo and will be delivered back to the service in Lambeth. Please note that all travel expenses will be reimbursed!

 

Duties

What you will be doing

  • Making regular visits to collect donations
  • Dropping off the donations at the service
