MIGRANT LED COOKERY CLASSES IN LONDON [6 WEEK CYCLES]

Migrateful is a charity supporting asylum seekers, refugees & migrants on their journey to integration. We do this by preparing them to lead cookery classes where they share their traditional cuisine and culture with public & private groups.

What You'll Do: 

Sign up for a six week volunteering cycle where you will support the smooth running of our Migrant-led Cookery Classes. You will choose a spot on the same day, at the same time and venue each week for the next six weeks. During each 5.5 hour weekly shift, you might be...

 

  • 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 facilitator pack up
  • Enjoying delicious meal prepared during class
Why You'll Love It: 

You will be supporting asylum seekers, refugees and migrants on their journey to integration and employment on a weekly basis in a way which fits around your schedule (choosing the same venue, day and time each week). These cycles are also a great way to forge new friendships with your fellow class cycle sidekicks and explore up to six cuisines from across the globe.

What We're Looking For: 

Someone with...

 

  • Genuine interest in supporting vulnerable migrants & promoting integration
  • Commitment to reliability 
  • Keen sense of initiative, positive attitude & willingness to get your hands dirty!

  • 3rd April - 15th May

  • 26th June - 6th July
