Silver Lunch Club fill-in chef
Ageing Well in Lewisham
Fill-in chef for Silver Lunch Club for older people in Downham.
Ageing Well in Lewisham is seeking a reliable, friendly volunteer chef to assist on a fill-in basis at our Silver Lunch Club for older people. Day/ hours: every Thursday, 11 am-3 pm. Location: Wesley Halls, 2 Shroffold Road, BR1 5PE. We have a regular chef, but sometimes get stuck when she is unable to attend. This role would not be regular, but on a fill-in basis with as much advance notice of dates needed as possible. You would liaise with our Project Coordinator on the menu (the Project Coordinator would do the shopping). You would prepare a meal and pudding for about 18-25 older people. You also would help where needed with setting up/ putting away table and chairs, chatting with members, some washing up, and putting away supplies. You would be assisted by the Project Coordinator and 2-3 volunteers. Candidates should have the proper training/ food prep and hygiene certification and some experience cooking for larger numbers. It is a welcoming, friendly group of people and we would love to meet you!
