Triple C (Liverpool) is an independent, incorporated charity in Liverpool 11, serving local communities for over 20 years.Founded by three Anglican churches, our main aim is to bring about positive change and improve the quality of life for people facing disadvantage in the L11 area of Liverpool. We encourage community involvement; our small staff team, alongside an amazing group of committed volunteers, deliver activities and services which are driven by local need. We aim to be a real living wage employer when funding will allow. As a key service provider in Norris Green, we have a long running Children & Families Project and free Debt Advice service, Community Café (free hot meal in a warm community space) and a Foodbank alongside a volunteering programme. We guide people through our services or refer them to other resources as needed. We collaborate with various local organisations, including health services, social landlords, councillors, churches, police, and the Credit Union.
L11 faces multiple deprivation challenges:
We aim to bridge the gap in this fragmented community and foster a thriving, unified community.
The Community Cafe Volunteer role is about more than just serving refreshments; it’s about creating a warm, welcoming space that brings the Norris Green community together. Every Tuesday, the cafe opens its doors to a diverse group of local people ranging from babies to seniors, offering them companionship, comfort, and a safe place to connect. The role involves serving hot drinks, snacks, and occasionally hot meals, alongside providing a friendly ear and fostering a sense of belonging.
Volunteers are the heart of the cafe, working together to maintain a clean and inviting environment, following food hygiene and safeguarding practices. The cafe is part of the “Places of Welcome” network, which seeks to reduce loneliness and build community through inclusion and kindness. Feedback from guests highlights how the cafe helps them get out of their homes, make new friends, and enjoy social interaction in a supportive atmosphere.
This opportunity is ideal for anyone wanting to make a real difference in their local area by giving the gift of time and kindness. Volunteers receive support, training, and become part of a happy, close-knit team. The position also provides a chance to meet a variety of people from the community, from families with children to older adults, and to contribute to a valued neighborhood resource that combats isolation and nurtures connections.
Triple C manages the volunteer recruitment, training, and daily running of the cafe, working in partnership with Christ Church Norris Green and supported by local grants and donations. This role is flexible but vital in keeping the cafe operating week by week and deeply valued by all who visit.
Volunteering at the cafe is about making a positive social impact, building community spirit, and offering warmth and welcome to others in need of company.
