Become a volunteer with the Little Flower Penny Dinners which is one of the longest running charities in the historic area of the Liberties in Dublin 8. Our volunteers are the ones that make it possible for us to continue feeding the people in Dublin that need us the most. 

Volunteer with us and become a part of our wonderful team. We provide flexible and team-based opportunities for volunteers, you can even come by our premises on 11 Meath Street and have a chat with our team to find something that suits you. 

Volunteering Opportunities 

Typically volunteers help out 1-2 mornings per week. Monday to Friday from around 9:00am - 1:00pm. 

1. Meals on Wheels

This service delivers meals to people's homes every morning Monday to Friday.

As a volunteer you will be able to deliver meals in the local area in one our vans. You will either be a volunteer driver or a volunteer helper who goes out with the driver. 

Please note that you would need a clean driving licence to drive one of the vans and both volunteers delivering the meals need to be reasonably fit since the role includes lifting and occasionally the need to walk up stairs to access apartments. 

2. In-House Service

Every Monday to Friday we serve a warm meal in our premises and we also prepare all the meals from scratch in-house. For this volunteering role you can help out with making tea, serving food to our guests, clearing tables and returning crockery/cutlery to the kitchen for washing as well as helping out with cleaning the dining area and making sure that everything is set up for the next day. 

*Please note that we work with older & vulnerable people and therefore all of our volunteers need to be Garda vetted before commencing work with the Little Flower. 

If you are interested in volunteering or have any questions, please feel free to contact us.

Even a few hours of volunteering per week can have a significant impact on our charity, every helping hand makes a difference. 
Our greatest strength is really our team and together as a community of volunteers, we take care of the ones that need it the most in our community.
