Hi Balancers, We believe community is about more than meeting new people. It's also about showing up for those who need support. As part of our ongoing partnership with Refugee Community Kitchen, we're inviting you to join us for a different kind of volunteering session. **This time, we'll be joining the Refugee Community Kitchen team for an evening behind the scenes. They've got a lot of jars of chilli oil waiting to be labelled, so they've asked if we can lend a hand! It's a chance to support an incredible organisation, spend time with fellow Balancers, and contribute to the work that helps make thousands of meals possible each week.** 💛 **What to Expect** * Spend a few hours giving back in a relaxed, friendly environment. * Help label jars of chilli oil alongside other Balancers and Refugee Community Kitchen volunteers. * Meet like-minded people while supporting a great cause. * No previous volunteering experience is needed. 📍 **Meeting Point** **Tuesday, 11th August** **6:00 PM** We'll meet outside **Mother Canteen**, which is just a short walk from the Refugee Community Kitchen. From there, we'll walk to the kitchen together and start the session. If you'd like to join us, save your spot and we'll see you there. 🔹 Stay connected: [Join our WhatsApp group \[here\] for last-minute updates.](https://chat.whatsapp.com/HYbCWaNidNV9aYK3TW9WGm) 🌱 **About Refugee Community Kitchen** Refugee Community Kitchen is a grassroots, volunteer-led organisation that has served over 3.5 million meals to displaced people and those experiencing food insecurity in the UK and northern France.
