Love Me Love My Mind is looking for Volunteer Cooks to help prepare a homemade evening meal for 25–30 people at our Monday Drop-in at St Barnabas Church, Temple Road, Epsom. KT19 8HA.

• Helping create a warm, welcoming space for our community

Who we’re looking for

• Confident home cooks (no professional experience needed)
• Reliable, friendly, and community-minded
• Able to work independently or as part of a small team
• Food hygiene awareness desirable (training can be supported)

What you’ll get

• A chance to make a meaningful impact
• Support from our team and fellow volunteers
• References available for regular volunteers
• The knowledge that your cooking truly matters

If you’re interested or would like to find out more, we’d love to hear from you.

Together, we can nourish both body and mind.
