Join our happy volunteers!

We are looking for local volunteers who are keen cooks and who would like to make a positive difference in their community by helping others learn to cook affordable, healthy meals for themselves and their families.

WHAT ARE COOKING UP LOOKING FOR?

As a volunteer for Cooking Up you will be responsible for supporting participants during the community cookery lessons, helping them to cook the meal during the sessions.

Your role as a volunteer would include:

• Setting up the cookery class space

• Welcoming the participants

• Making sure all participants feel welcome and are enjoying themselves 

• Washing up and packing up

• Supporting Cooking Up’s mission and helping to promote the charity amongst your networks
  

You don't need to have any previous cooking experience - you just need to love food and motivating people.

We also have opportunities for a number of volunteers keen to take a lead role in running the sessions. This would involve sourcing the ingredients for the sessions and managing the other volunteers during the cookery sessions.

If you are interested please register below, you will be taken to the Richmond CVS website a partner volunteering portal.
