Volunteer
Volunteering at Wen is a hugely rewarding experience. Volunteers gain unique experience in one of the UK’s only feminist environmental organisations.
Everyone who works for Wen has real responsibility and an equal voice within the organisation. You will enjoy a varied work experience, and we always encourage our volunteers to set and meet their personal development goals.
Previous Wen volunteers have gone on to paid jobs at organisations such as Sustain, Women’s Aid and Greenpeace.
“In an organisation of this size there is real scope to exercise initiative and make significant contributions to Wen’s aims. The team are always receptive to new ideas and supportive to volunteers, who are treated as valued and vital. I was able to build my skill set without compromising on ethics, which was really important to me.” – Georgie Johnson, Media & Communications Volunteer, 2014

We’re looking for an intern to support the Tower Hamlets Food Partnership (THFP) on two main projects: Local food information resource and Sustainable Food Places award.
There may also be scope to get involved in other THFP projects along the way, such as helping to coordinate and record Partnership meetings and supporting the work of our new 5-year climate action programme Just FACT (Just Food and Climate Transition).
Commitment: 1 day per week from mid-December 2020/start of January 2021 to mid-March 2021, with possibility to extend. Home working due to Covid restrictions. Possibility of occasional working at our local food office in Poplar in 2021, if working restrictions shift.
