Volunteer
Our volunteers do their best work when they're making the most of their unique talents. So helping you find the role that suits you and your skills best is our goal.
Volunteering is more than delivering a task without payment. It’s about giving the gift of your time, talent and skills. Tottenham Foodbank volunteers are the driving force behind our service, and we could not help to support our local community without them.

Collection Driver Needed
We are looking for confident, safe drivers to join our driving team.
The role will mainly involve picking up donations from our partner Supermarkets in Seven Sisters and Stroud Green and transporting it to our warehouse in Tottenham. This will involve loading tins and other food items into and out of a vehicle so you will have to be comfortable lifting and carrying a fair weight.
We also arrange other ad-hoc collections from other locations, particularly over Christmas.
Ideally, collections will be some time between 11am and 7pm on Thursdays, though we may be able to be flexible. Our van can be used if you do not have your own vehicle.
