Volunteer Role - Christmas Meal Volunteer Team
Duration: 1 day (plus preparation)
Location: Charles Court, Tunbridge Wells
The Salvation Army Housing Association (SAHA) is a leading provider of residential centres, foyers, supported accommodation, and move-on housing for single & homeless people in the UK.
Our mission is to transform lives but providing solutions to homelessness and enabling customers to focus on their talents and develop their own potential. For us, transforming lives is about meeting the 'whole' needs of individuals - physical, mental, moral and spiritual.
Charles Court is an established development of purpose built apartments for older people. We are looking for a team of people to organise and host a Christmas meal for the residents some time in December. This could involve preparing a menu, cooking a Christmas meal and putting on activities for residents to engage with - you are only limited by your imagination!
Community events such as these are great ways to help residents create a sense of community and prevent social isolation, by creating opportunities to interact with a wide range of people.
Volunteer teams will be encouraged to budget for resources that they will need to host a Christmas meal - this could come from your organisation's charity budget or how about doing some fundraising for the day?
