We need a volunteer to be flexible so they can work between reception and helping out in the café. Working on reception, you will often be the first person someone will speak to when they arrive at the location. This will include staff, volunteers and the general public. While assisting in the café, you may be taking orders for food, making and serving drinks and keeping the area clean and tidy at all times.
