Summary

Our drivers need some help! Are you physically able to help us to collect, move and deliver food and furniture, bags and boxes between our sites and others?

Detailed description

Are you passionate about helping vulnerable people in our area? Our vans help us to provide vital services across our organisation.


We are looking for support for our drivers; people physically able to assist with the lifting, moving and carrying of the many different collections and deliveries made across our services.


This is a hugely varied role and could see you assisting with moving a three piece suite from someone's lounge to the warehouse and then out to a new owner, to helping out with unloading deliveries onto the Pantry shelves.


We are looking for volunteers who are passionate about helping others, sharing their skills and time to enable and maintain our service.


If you'd like to help, contact us today!

About The Purfleet Trust

The Purfleet Trust is a charity that supports people experiencing homelessness in King’s Lynn and West Norfolk. We believe that everyone has the right to live in a decent, suitable and affordable home and should have access to services that support and enable them to live independently.
From our Health and Wellbeing Centre at Austin Fields, people experiencing homelessness can access wellbeing services, housing advice, skills workshops and more. The Centre is also home to our clinical practice with regular visits from a nurse and a Podiatrist, as well as a hairdresser for our clients to use.
We have supported living Training Houses across King's Lynn that manage to help our clients learn how to be a valued member of the community and maintain sustainable independent tenancies.
The Purfleet Pantry social supermarket on Southgates Roundabout is a shop offering affordable food, essentials and furniture to the wider public in South Lynn and beyond to help tackle the Cost of Living Crisis in our area. This also acts as a signposting service for our other services such as housing support and benefits advice.
