Community Supermarket Assistant
Community Supermarkets are community-led initiatives which provide access to nutritious food for a fraction of what the same items would cost in a regular supermarket. They enable people, particularly those on low incomes, to stretch their budgets further each week, helping to prevent crisis situations from arising in household finances which can result in the need for households to access support from food banks.
We are looking for volunteers who can help us to set up this exciting new service. The role will include helping to set up "supermarket" sessions in the community. This will include setting up the space with tables to display the stock, taking payments and keeping simple inventory records, meeting and greeting shoppers, and helping with refreshments to create a welcoming environment.
This role could include some manual handling, so volunteers should have a reasonable level of fitness.
Exact times of the sessions are not yet known, but it is expected that it will be on either a morning or afternoon a week in either Heybridge or Southminster.
This opportunity is available in: Maldon
