The Employability Training programme offers recognised vocational qualifications to the dedicated FareShare volunteers who commit their time to sorting, making up orders and delivering food to charities
Volunteers can gain qualifications in a FareShare depot, helping them to increase in confidence, learn new skills and gain work experience in a supportive environment
The programme of training modules (including fork lift truck training) form part of an overall NVQ in Warehousing, Distribution, and Storage
Since its launch, the programme has enabled 24 people to obtain a forklift truck certificate and 86 people have achieved CIEH level 1 or 2 certificate in food safety in catering. For more information, please contact Kath Elliott, National Operations Manager, on tel. 020 7394 2468 or email kath.elliott@fareshare.org.uk.
