An Axminster based charity; ‘Project Food’ who for the past 15 years have been working in East Devon, West Dorset and South Somerset to help people improve their diets and enjoy better physical & mental health, is looking to expand its team of volunteers to allow them to respond to the demand for their services.

From cooking to food shopping, there are volunteer roles to suit everyone wanting to be involved.

They help people of all ages with varying needs and requirements including parents with children, people with mental health problems, individuals caring for sick partners, people living alone, widowers, and young carers – to gain the knowledge, skills and confidence they need in order to put healthy meals on the table.

Trisha who has been volunteering for Project Food since early 2022 has said;

“The major reason for volunteering is the pleasure I get from seeing individuals grow in confidence both within themselves and their ability to cook nutritious meals on a budget.”
