Cookery Class Volunteer (ad-hoc) at Migrateful

What does the opportunity involve doing?

Our volunteers are most crucial to the work we do. Your support in running our cookery classes enable us to continue the programs we have for the refugees and migrants that belong in the Migrateful family.

If you have a few hours to spare and want to support our chefs and facilitators up as a Migrateful class sidekick, we’d love it if you can volunteer to our evening dinner classes happening between now and June. Classes in Brighton take place on the first 3 Thursdays of every month at the Wild Artisan Cafe, BN1 6EA, 5pm - 10:30pm.

You can volunteer as much as you like. You can be a regular volunteer and if you complete 6 classes in 3 months, we will reward you :-)

As a class sidekick, you will be expected to do tasks that include, but are not limited to:

Helping with set up of the space & cooking stations.
Welcoming participants & ensuring they enjoy themselves.
Keeping stations clear & clean by removing food scraps & cleaning equipment.
Washing up & helping the Facilitator pack up.
Enjoying delicious meal prepared during class!

Want to do something more regular and belong in a community of class sidekicks? Check out The Orange Onion Club at https://www.migrateful.org/join-the-team/join-the-orange-onion-club-volunteers/

What induction, training and support is offered?

You will be sent our Migrateful handbook to read and our cookery class facilitator & fellow volunteers will show you the ropes when you arrive at a class.

What skills or qualities are needed?

Migrateful asks that our volunteers have a genuine interest in supporting migrants and their integration. Its also important to us that class sidekicks are committed. Finally, being proactive and enthusiastic are ideal qualities for Migrateful volunteers.
