🌟CFINE celebrates Volunteers Week 2026! 🌟

This week is Volunteers Week!
Our volunteers are at the heart of CFINE, without them the work we do wouldn’t be possible.
Last month 105 volunteers contributed 4,274 hours across all areas of CFINE. Including working in our warehouses, driving vans, in our pantry, helping with admin and working at the Fruitmart in Peterhead.

To celebrate Volunteers Week at CFINE we have planned a few activities across the week for our volunteers.
Yesterday Angus and Kian hosted a quiz, with our volunteers competing in teams for first place. Congratulations to the winning teams! 🏆

A huge thank you to all of our volunteers!

Last week CFINE hosted its first Community Meal! 🍴

This Community Meal gave people a chance to meet new people, eat delicious food and learn more about the benefits of home cooking. This is the first event in a series of Community Meals hosted by CFINE that will bring members of our community together to enjoy a warm meal and chat about different topics.

The meal was well attended with attendees enjoying a two-course meal of steak pie, potatoes, veg and honey sponge cake with yogurt. The ingredients for the meal where sourced from surplus food that was redistributed by FareShare and then prepared in our Community Training Kitchen. This helps to reduce the environmental impact of food waste by preventing edible food from going to landfill.

The theme for the next Community Meal will be Community Growing. Highlighting the health, environmental and mental benefits of growing your own food. Keep an eye out on our social media for more information on this.

📣 We would love to hear your ideas for the themes of our future Community Meals! Please let us know your ideas in the comments.📣

Sam takes on the challenge of Saltire24 solo! 🏃‍♀️

This year will be Sam’s fifth year competing in the race but the first time doing it solo and not part of a team. She is taking on the challenge on June 21st and attempting to raise £1,000 for CFINE!

Fundraisers like this are a great way to support CFINE! All money raised by Sam’s fundraiser will go to support the increased demand on CFINE’s wrap around support services.

Due to the cost-of-living crisis we have seen an increased number of people approaching CFINE for a range of support. Including a sharp rise in the number of people accessing our emergency food provision, with numbers rising from 43,850 parcels distributed in 2024 to 54,398 parcels in 2025.
