Make your team day count
Volunteers are at the heart of everything we do at Healthy Living Platform. By joining us for a team day, your team will play a hands-on role in getting healthy food to the people and communities who need it most, from sorting and redistributing surplus at our Food Hub to supporting our community kitchen and pantries. We ask groups to make a donation towards this work, helping us sustain and grow our impact across Lambeth.
