SUBU Advice

The SUBU Community Kitchen designed to support wellbeing, reduce food waste, no judgemental access to food. As a Community Kitchen Volunteer, you’ll help organise surplus food, assist with pantry organisation, maintain the kitchen and support events that bring students together around food and conversation.

Volunteers play a key role in creating a welcoming, inclusive environment where students can access nutritious meals and connect with others. You’ll work alongside SUBU staff and fellow volunteers to run themed Supper Clubs, food-sharing events, and promotion activities. The kitchen also supplies fresh produce from the SUBU Community Garden, promoting sustainability and healthy living.

This opportunity is ideal for students who want to make a tangible impact on campus, develop practical skills, and contribute to a supportive community. No prior experience is needed—just a willingness to get involved and work as part of a team.

Volunteers will gain experience in food handling, event support, and community engagement, and will be invited to participate in seasonal campaigns and feedback sessions. Your contribution helps reduce food insecurity, build student confidence, and promote positive mental health.

Whether you're passionate about sustainability, cooking, or simply want to meet new people and give back, the Community Kitchen offers a meaningful and flexible way to get involved.
