Our cafés are somewhere for people get a great coffee, lunch or a snack, as well as being community hubs for a variety of activities encouraging people to get outside and enjoy using their local park.
As a community café volunteer you will be part of a friendly team, helping to take orders, serve customers, and assist with the general running of the café. You will gain lots of practical experience in the catering industry such as customer service, serving food and drinks, and stock management. It's a great way to help the local community and be part of a special team.
Our cafe volunteers will have the opportunity to get involved with our community cafes at Winton Recreation Ground, Redhill Park, Boscombe Chine Gardens, or Alexandra Park.
