FareShare North East works in partnership with the UK's largest food redistribution charity, FareShare UK, to source and redistribute quality, good-to-eat surplus food, which would otherwise have gone to waste.
Our Warehouse Assistants are at the heart of what we do. Our team are responsible for sorting, picking and packing food deliveries that will go out the next day to the organisations we support. You could also be involved in recording food that comes into our warehouse each day. Every day is different and you will be a part of a fun and friendly team of volunteers. Duties include: - Working as part of a team to manually sort and store large deliveries of surplus food - Helping to assemble the daily deliveries of food for local charities and community groups - Making sure the food is within use-by dates and handled safely
