Welcome House are looking for someone with catering experience and a community background to establish the kitchen as a working unit; and to develop and train their volunteers to plan, prepare, cook, serve and clear up meals for up to 20 to 40 people at a time. These volunteers are mainly asylum seekers themselves, drawn from over 50 countries, with as many languages and styles of cooking between them!
Welcome House see the kitchen as not just providing nutritious food for refugees; but also, as an opportunity for refugees to acquire skills, confidence and qualifications in catering and team work to help them move on into their new lives in this country. The kitchen supervisor will have a key role in both aspects.
