Do you want to help people with learning disabilities to take an active role in their nutrition? Then we would love to hear from you!
Our Healthier Me programme plays a vital role in promoting health and wellbeing across our communities. It encourages people to make positive lifestyle choices by sharing practical, achievable tips around healthy eating, physical activity, and mental wellbeing. We are looking for friendly, enthusiastic volunteers to support this programme by delivering Healthy Eating workshops through cooking demonstrations or follow-along sessions. These sessions may take place with: People we support with a learning disability, Mencap Network Partners.
As a volunteer, you’ll work alongside our staff team, and the people we support to co-create easy, affordable, and healthy recipes that reflect the needs, preferences, and abilities of each group.
How often you volunteer is flexible, but would ideally be at least 1-2 times per month.
Your role will help people with a learning disability develop greater confidence and independence around food and health, while also supporting staff and partners to feel more confident preparing nutritious meals within their services.
Opportunities may be weekly, quarterly, or one-off, depending on local needs within our Healthier Me Hubs.
Empower individuals with learning disabilities and autism to reach their full potential and lead the lives they choose.
