As a Cooking Volunteer you’ll join the kitchen team to help produce a three-course vegetarian meal using surplus food.
You’ll contribute to recipe ideas, help with prepping the food, cooking the meal, and of course clearing up afterwards!
You’ll be supported by a FoodCycle Project Leader, who will help you to develop your kitchen skills.
You don’t need to have any previous experience – just be willing to get stuck in!
