Become the Heartbeat of Your Community This October
Imagine one parcel. Inside, there is something more than just food and essentials; inside, there is a message of care, a thread of unity, and a dose of dignity. Now imagine being the one to bring that message.
That is life at Food & Solidarity, and it is a life built entirely on the shoulders of volunteers.
For October 2025, we invite you to be part of the team making such vital work possible. It's not all about filling shifts; it's about assisting in a fundamental need for solidarity in our community.
More Than a Parcel: It's a Lifeline
Food & Solidarity stands as a beautiful, well-greased machine of compassion and direct community action. Every week, a team assembles to ensure that our members receive the support that they need. This is a process with many hands, and every one matters.
Where do you belong?
We have something for all, as we recognize that everyone has different skills and ability to give. Hands-on, communications superstar, or car available to volunteer - there's something for everyone.
The Organisers: Our Rota Coordinators and Dispatchers are our brains behind the scenes that keep everything running smoothly, balancing experience and energy to drive the team.
The Hands-On Crew: As a Parcel Maker, you’ll be carefully selecting and packing items with care. As a Friday Delivery Receiver, you’re the first point of contact for incoming supplies, setting the stage for the weekend’s work.
The Connectors: Our Drivers are the smiling faces delivering to doorsteps. The Saturday Phone Role and Monday-Wednesday Food Orders team is the project's voice of critical connection, ensuring no one is left behind due to language, literacy, or lack of internet access.
A Shared Effort, A Stronger Community
We are committed to capacity-building as an organisation. That is why we share tasks around, you might pack packages one week and help with the phone orders the next week. It's not just about being efficient; it's about us all knowing every part of the process and growing as a team. (And while there are some member-only tasks, there are lots of opportunities for everyone to pitch in!)
