The Hope Hub (SH)
Healthy nourishing meals are otherwise scarce for
many of our Service Users and they are the basis for all
further Crisis support care, hope and decision making.
Service Users, volunteers and staff are all greatly
motivated by the smell, warmth and gift of home
cooking. It turns a bad day and an overly busy office
into a Hopeful Hub.
We are seeking to extend our team of Volunteer Cooks
and Kitchen Assistant. A number of Volunteer Kitchen
Assistants will be appointed to cover our opening hours
and different locations. A team approach and flexible
attitude is therefore needed.
The Hope Hub (THH) is a registered charity constituted
by ecumenical members of Churches Together in
Camberley and is a faith-based charity. It was formed in
December 2017 in response to a defined need to serve
those who are homeless, at risk of becoming homeless,
in financial hardship, unemployed and/or suffering with
mental health difficulties and/or addiction(s). We work in
partnership with Surrey Heath Borough Council and all
other local organisations.
