Community Organiser role description

Role outline and purpose The Food bank Community Organiser is responsible for developing the food bank’s capacity to organise and campaign for change.

· To map out and build relationships with the food bank’s partners, referral agencies and local anti-poverty organisations, and to engage them in identifying the local drivers of poverty.

· To deliver the local campaigning strategy working with food bank staff, volunteers and clients

· To work with the Organising and Local Mobilisation team in Trussell and engage with the training and support on offer, including work with other Community Organisers in the Trussell network
