We hope you enjoyed meeting some of our team this !

Here are a few words from our coordinator, Arianna:

'The reliability our volunteers offer, being there as to help every single week is absolutely priceless to us. We are extremely grateful to them for the regular offer of help. They come to volunteer with big smiles and an incredibly positive attitude which makes our beneficiaries feeling properly welcomed and included. We hope they continue to volunteer with us because their support and positive presence are truly invaluable!

Thank you to all of our volunteers, including the many new volunteers we safely recruited since November last year. The beautiful volunteering family is fast and happily growing!'

Gbenga is another one of our incredible Distribution Volunteers, starting with us a couple of months ago. We asked him about his experience volunteering with us:

'My name is Gbenga, I came to know about the volunteering work at Ascension when i came to collect food from the food bank. My role is to assist in arranging and giving out the food to the people from the community. I like to do volunteering work cos I love to assist and give back to the community in every capacity that I can. My volunteering experience has been lovely so far, putting smile on people's faces has been my highlight so far and I want to continue doing this.'

Thank you to Gbenga for putting those smiles on faces - we're so grateful for your help! 💚

Panna is our Driver and Welcome volunteer. She visits other organisations to pick up large food donations, often fresh food items that we can offer alongside our parcels.
(Check out for our current donation list!)

On Thursdays, she is also one of the volunteers you may meet while waiting. In need of a cuppa, a snack and a chat? Talk to Panna, or any of our welcome/kitchen team ☕

Thank you Panna for your warm presence and dedication to the food bank!
