Are you interested in becoming a voluntary Trustee?
We are looking for experienced and committed individuals to play a valuable role in the governance and development of our South West London charity, which is dedicated to working with people of refugee backgrounds to provide practical, educational, and social help.
Community Action for Refugees and Asylum Seekers (CARAS) creates supportive relationships, networks, and spaces that enable people to access what they need in order to improve their wellbeing and safety.

We are in the process of establishing our brand new Food Waste hub right at the centre of New Covent Garden Market and we would be delighted for you to get involved!
City Harvest London rescues nutritious surplus food from farms, manufacturers, wholesalers, and retailers, and delivers it, for free, to over 123,000 a week via organistions feeding those facing food poverty. City Harvest rescues food, people, and the planet by preventing food waste, providing life-changing support to communities across London through food, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions from waste.
City Harvest vans equally deliver to food banks, homeless shelters, hostels, soup kitchens, mental health charities, projects supporting the elderly and socially isolated, social pantries, community kitchens, refugee hostels, schools and nurseries, family centres and domestic abuse refuges.
Now distributing free food for more than 1.2 million meals a month, the need continues to rise as the cost of living tightens its grip. City Harvest has sites in west, east and south London, and a fleet of vehicles that cover the whole of the UK rescuing food.
Our Warehouse Assistants are crucial to keeping the vans rolling and to making sure food is ready to go out to feed London. They are the packers, the stackers, the sorters, and the porters of our operation.
Every volunteering experience with City Harvest will vary, as roles assigned will depend on the time of day and the needs of the day. You could be unloading deliveries, checking and sorting food, creating mixed meal boxes for the homeless, or carrying out other warehouse tasks to help in the day-to-day running of City Harvest.
By volunteering with us for a day, individuals have the chance to make a direct positive impact on thousands of vulnerable people in London. Because of the time our volunteers donate to helping City Harvest, many Londoners facing obstacles such as homelessness, food poverty, and/or domestic abuse will have access to a nutritious meal. Not only this, but there is a significant environmental impact to our work too! The food that we rescue would otherwise go to landfill, where it would release harmful greenhouse gases as it decomposes. Therefore, your days’ work will also make a tremendous difference to both people and the planet!
A lot of our activities in our warehouse can be physically demanding, as we are sorting and packing food for delivery.
