Vacancies
Café Leader
Paid role, part-time (6-hours per week on a Wednesday)
The Café Leader will be responsible for overseeing our kitchen and café provision. This includes cooking balanced, nutritious and fully-vegetarian three-course meals for our weekly lunch services. Other key responsibilities include overseeing the food safety management system, stock control & rotation, general cleaning, administrative tasks, and providing support and guidance for volunteers within the kitchen and café areas.
We are looking for someone passionate and ambitious, with previous experience working within a kitchen environment and a motivation for providing a high-quality service to those we support. Our kitchen and café aim to be as sustainable as possible, so much of our food stock comes from donations and through low-cost food surplus redistribution via FareShare with some additional stock from the CLC allotment. The ideal candidate will need to be creative and flexible to make the most out of the food deliveries we receive, ensuring food waste is limited and the food prepared is balanced, nutritious and delicious.
How to apply
Please send your CV, cover letter and a completed application form (found below) to [email protected]
The closing date for applications is 28th July 2024, and we expect interviews to take place on the 1st August 2024 (though this may be subject to change).
For enquiries or an informal discussion about the role, contact: Cody Hodkinson or Lorna Wilson or call 0161 696 7501.

Join us to continue improving mental health – become a Creative Living Centre Trustee
The Creative Living Centre (‘CLC’) is looking to add to its Board of Trustees to deliver the charity’s dual core objectives:
- To promote the preservation of mental health and to assist in relieving persons suffering from emotional or mental distress requiring advice or treatment; and
- To promote the education of the public in mental health issues.
Who are the Creative Living Centre?
We are a forward-thinking mental health charity based in Prestwich, Greater Manchester, making a big difference to our members/service users. We are now recruiting for additional Trustees to join the Board. We’ve been around for more than 25 years, and we offer a wide range of services, including:
- Therapeutic activities including one-to-one emotional support, counselling, and complementary therapies.
- Workshops and courses on wellbeing such as challenging negative thoughts, healthy eating, motivation, stress management and confidence building.
- Peer mentoring providing goal-based support from people with lived experience.
- Creative activities such as arts, crafts, creative writing and singing.
- Physical exercise and wellbeing classes, including gardening, bike riding, dance, and yoga.
- Social events including meeting up for tea and a chat or a free meal on Saturdays.
CLC Trustees
Our Trustee recruitment goal is to find good people who have an interest in mental health services and who would like to contribute to the development & continued success of the CLC.
We are looking for people who may be considering taking their first step in a Trustee role or may have been involved with trusteeships previously. In either case, we’ll provide you with the support and training you need to carry out the role. Please note, this is a volunteer role and is unpaid.
