Volunteering

Want to meet new people?
Want to help make a difference?

Volunteering with FFTG is an exciting and enjoyable experience. For example, our cafe services (catering and hospitality) allow us to offer supported volunteer work placements.  

Also, via the Volunteer Action Fund, we currently offer supported volunteer services to community members who are house bound, where volunteers can assist people in the preparation of healthy food at home. This service: Healthy Food At Home, is available free of charge & a home visit can be arranged for individuals or services users of community groups or social work referrals. (Please contact us for more info)

“The FFTG courses have really boosted my confidence & overall health. The opportunity to volunteer was exciting & enjoyable. This has led to work placements & employment”

Karibu Group

Karibu is an organisation that works with Congoleze women. The women taking part in this FFTG course were using this to help integration and to gain voluntary experience which would help them to prepare for employment.

"The course has given me skills to help produce western food. This will help me get a UK job".
