Our lunch club volunteers work from 9.30am to 2pm on a Monday or Wednesday and help with all of our activities including food and drink preparation and serving, chat and interaction as well as fun and games.

You would have to be able to spend a few hours on your feet. Clubs are run every week and we are looking for some long term commitment but you would not have to work every week. Each club is run by an employed leader with the help of a group of volunteers.

We are based in the centre of St Albans.
