VOLUNTEER IN LONDON

We are looking for people to volunteer in our brand-new depot in East London, opening in April 2021. This operation in Poplar will be our largest one yet so we will need as many volunteers as possible!

We also have volunteer opportunities across London but due to an overwhelming positive response in the last few months, we have temporarily paused welcoming new volunteers to our other operations. We will update this page as soon as we reopen applications in our other locations:

• West London, Park Royal, W3 0RU
• North London, Enfield, EN1 1SH
• South London, Deptford SE8 5HY
• Central London (Zone 1)

WAREHOUSE VOLUNTEERS

4-hour volunteering shifts are available in our Park Royal W3 0RU, Enfield EN1 1SH, and Deptford SE8 5HY depots.

Sort and pack food with Felix and become an essential part of our operations to get food out to Londoners in need. Anyone can do it, as long as you are relatively fit and active. We have strict COVID health & safety measures in place at both depots. Depots are well ventilated / open.

Register & book onto your first shift via the link above, and then just book onto shifts as and when they become available, at a time and frequency that suits you.

CENTRAL LONDON WALKING/CYCLING ROUTE

1.5-hour volunteering shifts available on our Central London green routes.

Join our green team of walkers and cyclists. Using one of our Felix courier bags, you’ll collect food leftover at the end of the day from cafes, delis, and bakeries and deliver this to charities helping the homeless and other vulnerable groups in Central London.

This role will give you the opportunity to get out and about in London and see first-hand the impact the food you deliver has on people’s lives. You’ll also be able to get your step count up as some of our routes are 10,000 steps!

VOLUNTEER DRIVERS & CO DRIVERS

2/3 hour shifts available in our Park Royal W3 0RU, Enfield EN1 1SH, and Deptford SE8 5HY depots.

Drive a small van on a designated route around London, delivering food to charities and schools. Get to see where Felix food goes, who it helps, and even pick up some more food to be sorted and shared!

Drivers drive the van and help to unpack the food at the stops. Co-drivers navigate and help to pack and unpack the food at the stops.

You can opt to drive a route without a co-driver, but please note this requires unpacking heavy creates by yourself. If you are doing a route as a pair, and are not from the same household, you must wear a mask at all times.

Drivers need to be able to drive a van confidently, and:

• Have a full driving licence with less than 6 points on the licence
• Be over 21 years old
• Have been driving for over 1 year
• Ideally, you will have some professional driving experience

Anyone can be a co-driver as long as they are relatively fit & able to lift crates of food.

We normally ask prospective driving volunteers to do some shifts as a warehouse assistant as a first step to getting a feel for our work. You will also be asked to complete a driving assessment with us before you can go out in the van on your own.
