The Beacon Centre is a highly valued community service which provides a safe, warm, and non-judgemental space for homeless and isolated people in Banbury. Volunteers work in a team to provide food and drinks to visitors under the supervision of the Drop-in Coordinator.
People who are homeless or isolated benefit greatly from having a safe warm and non-judgemental place where they can have access to some food and drinks, interact with peers in similar circumstances and find out about services available to them and how to access them.
We are seeking Volunteers to help us continue to provide such a space at the Banbury Drop-in Centre by working in a team to provide food and drinks to visitors under the supervision of the Drop-in Coordinator.
How you can help in maintaining the welcoming nature and continued take up of this valuable community service:
- Setting up the kitchen, including getting the equipment ready,
- Following food hygiene and health & safety guidelines and preparing food and drinks following guidelines from the Drop-in Coordinator,
- Clearing away at the end of each session,
- Interacting with visitors as needed, ensuring attendance is monitored and any concerns are passed to the Drop-in Coordinator.
