In 2023, The Felix Project delivered over 13,300 tonnes of food to 1,100+ community organisations across London, including 170 schools. Plus, Felix's Kitchen was able to prepare over 1 million nutritious and delicious meals in 2023.
None of this would be possible without the support of our incredible team of volunteers!

How do I become a volunteer?

The first step on your volunteer journey is to find out more about what we do!

There are 3 different options for you to start your volunteer journey:

1. Attend an Online Information Session

Information Sessions are held online via a Microsoft Teams video call with one a member of Felix's Volunteer Team. Each session is around 30 minutes - we'll share with you what we do, why we do it, and how you can get involved. Once you register, you will receive an email with a link to your session. If you don't receive the link, please check your spam folder or contact our volunteer team at [email protected]

The next online Information Session is: 
Thursday 2nd January, 12noon - 12.30pm

Register by completing the form below!
Can't make this session? Check back after 2nd January or scroll down to see other ways to sign up!


2. Attend an In-Person Information Session

If you'd rather attend an in-person Information Session at your local depot, please get in touch with our volunteer team. You can meet your local Volunteer Manager, learn more about what we do, and even do a trial shift in the depot!


3. Can't make one of our Information Sessions?

If you can't make one of our online or in-person Information Sessions, you can have a recording of the Information Session sent to your email, along with further information about the next steps. Please note, this option is not available for Green Scheme volunteer opportunities.


I have a visceral loathing of waste so the charity’s mission fits very well with my values. We’re such a mixed bunch in Park Royal from all walks of life, ages, professions, beliefs. People I wouldn’t necessarily get to meet in the normal course of every day life.
