Volunteering
Tandridge Voluntary Action has received interest from over 200 new volunteers in the last week. As the situation evolves in the next few days, there may be more need emerging in some areas of Tandridge, particularly in relation to vulnerable people. We will work with you to ensure you have more volunteers to assist you.

Support our local foodbanks
Every day people in the UK go hungry for reasons ranging from redundancy to receiving an unexpected bill on a low income. This has become particularly clear during the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak. A simple box of food makes a big difference.
Over 90% of the food distributed by foodbanks across The Trussell Trust network is donated by the public – that’s why your food donations are absolutely vital to their ability to give everyone referred to them a balanced and nutritious three day supply of food.
Caterham and East Grinstead foodbanks are welcoming food donations and their shopping lists can be found on their websites:
If you are currently self-isolating or choosing not to visit shops or supermarkets at this time, but would like to help, please consider giving a financial donation to help them continue their valuable work. Visit https://www.trusselltrust.org/get-involved/ways-to-give/ or text TRUSSELL then your amount (eg TRUSSELL 5) to 70085.
