Summary

We are looking for small business groups to help us pack our festive hampers and sort stock in our warehouse. Please contact us to arrange a date.

Detailed description

At Christmas, we provide clients with a little bag of festive extras to help them celebrate the season when times can be hardest for many. We are asking businesses to volunteer their time to help pack these parcels during the week, to support our team as we prepare to feed thousands of Gloucester's residents.

We are also asking for extra support in our warehouse sorting the stock that we receive. 

We have availability for these shifts throughout the last 2 weeks of November, and in the first 3 weeks of December and can host groups of up to 4 people from 10am-2pm. 


The following dates are available, so please discuss with your team when you could get together to don christmas jumpers, listen to festive music and provide a little Christmas joy. 

Available dates:

18th, 19th, 21st, 22nd, 26th + 27th November.

2nd and 5th December.
