Join to apply for the Cooking volunteer role at Julian House
Julian House is a charity dedicated to making a difference to the lives of the most vulnerable and disadvantaged people in society. We run several projects and every year we help thousands of people out of homelessness, into employment, away from domestic abuse, and more.
We’re currently looking for passionate and committed volunteers to join us in making a real difference.
Job Role: Cooking Volunteer
Location: Manvers Street Hostel, Central Bath
Available Shifts: Monday to Sunday
Join us for one or more of the following shift options:
* Lunchtime Shift – starting from 11:30 AM
* Evening Shift – starting from 5:30 PM
Whether you can help out during the day or in the evening, your support makes a real difference!
The Role
Are you passionate about food and want to make a meaningful difference in your community? Join us as a Cooking Volunteer at our Manvers Street Hostel, where we provide 24-hour support to individuals with a history of homelessness.
In this role, you’ll be preparing and cooking hearty meals for our residents, helping to bring comfort, routine, and nourishment to their day. You’ll also be responsible for cleaning up as you go and ensuring the kitchen is left tidy afterwards.
Please note: This role is a solo one, so you’ll need to feel confident working independently in the kitchen — but don’t worry, support is always nearby if you need it!
What’s In It For You
* Cooking Skills: This is a great opportunity to develop your skills while preparing wholesome, home-cooked meals.
* Full Induction & Support: You’ll receive a warm welcome and full induction to help you settle into the role and get to know more about our hostel and the people we support.
* Make a Real Difference: Your time and care will have a direct impact on the lives of individuals experiencing homelessness.
What’s Expected Of You
* Bring Enthusiasm: A positive attitude and a willingness to get involved go a long way in making a difference.
* Follow Guidelines: Adhere to our policies and procedures to help ensure a safe and supportive environment for everyone.
* Complete Training: Engage with the training provided during registration to feel confident and prepared in your role.
* Champion Our Mission: Support Julian House’s goal of helping vulnerable and at-risk individuals rebuild their lives.
Time Commitment
A typical volunteering shift lasts around 2 to 3 hours. All we ask is for a regular commitment — whether that’s once a week or once a month, every bit of your time makes a real difference.
Please note: To volunteer at our hostel, you must be 18 years or older and will be required to complete an Enhanced DBS check as part of the onboarding process.
Our Ethos
As an Equal Opportunities employer, we have an Equality and Diversity Action plan in place showing our commitment in ensuring continuous improvement in creating an inclusive culture. We also have a committed group of Inclusion & Diversity champions who meet monthly to ensure progress is being made. We invite applications from people from all backgrounds and cultures, especially minority groups that are underrepresented in the workplace. We also welcome applications from those with lived experience. We embrace flexibility and are proud to be a Disability Confident and Mindful employer, as well as an Armed Forces Covenant Supporter.
If you have any special access requirements or other support needs throughout the application process, please contact us so that we can let you know how we can support you.
DBS Checks
We welcome applications from people with lived experience. All applicants working with our clients will be expected to undertake an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service check. A criminal conviction will not necessarily prevent you from becoming an employee, the decision will depend on the type of offence and its relevance to the role. If you would like to discuss any convictions you may have, please contact the person named in the advert. All information will be dealt with according to our Data Protection Policy.
