Ways to help

Street Food Team

Prep and serve soup, hot drinks, fruit and sandwiches — plus friendly conversation and signposting.

Hygiene Packs

Assemble compact kits (toothpaste, shower gel, deodorant, razors) and help keep our stock organised.

Clothing & Donations

Sort and size clean clothing, check quality, and prepare seasonal bundles for distribution.

Small acts, big impact

A warm bowl of soup, a clean pair of socks, a conversation — small things add up. Our volunteers bring consistency and dignity to people facing a tough time.

  • Weekly service every Tuesday, from 7:00 pm — The Strand, Charing Cross
  • Flexible roles; training and guidance provided
  • Great for first-time volunteers or experienced hands

Team spirit & volunteer community

We're a welcoming, close-knit team. Volunteering with us isn't just about service—it's about looking out for each other, learning together, and building friendships as we support our community.

  • Pre-service huddle: quick roles & safety brief; new joiners get a buddy.
  • Post-service debrief: 10-minute check-in over tea—what went well, what we'll improve.
  • Rotas that work: flexible shifts—serve weekly or monthly, as you can.
  • Community moments: occasional socials and seasonal packing days (e.g., winter gifts).
