Volunteer
Our volunteers help us to provide food and practical support to people left without enough money to live on.
Join our team!
You can volunteer anything from a few hours a week…
Jeanette
"I started volunteering 14 yrs ago as I believe in helping the needy."
Louise
"I volunteer at the Foodbank to support and give back to the community and help out. If one small act of kindness makes a difference, even in one person's life, it is worth my time. I volunteer at my foodbank because no-one should have to wonder where their next meal is coming from."
Dimpy
"I volunteer to help the community and give back to society, and I enjoy the comaraderie with my fellow volunteers."
Yvonne
"I volunteer to support those less fortunate than myself, and to offer help to the needy in our society. I also enjoy working as a team with a variety of new people."
Paula
"I watched the film 'I, Daniel Blake' and this inspired me to volunteer to help people."
Jean
"For me, when people who are in work still end up in need, still end up desperate to find a way to put food on the table for their families, that's what drives me to volunteer at Newcastle-Staffs Foodbank."
Volunteers make a difference in the local community across a range of roles, including boosting donations, packing food parcels, providing a warm welcome, tackling loneliness, signposting to additional services, connecting with partners, raising awareness and leading projects.
