Become Our Bar Host - Serve Smiles and Good Times!

Are you friendly, outgoing, and looking for a rewarding way to spend your Wednesday or Friday evening (or both)? We’re looking for a reliable and honest volunteer to run our in-house bar from 6-9pm, with 20 minutes before for setup and 15 minutes after to tidy up.

Your Role:
As our In-House Bar Host, you’ll be serving a selection of wines, spirits, and beer (no cocktails) while creating a warm and enjoyable environment. Your friendly and approachable nature will help make each evening a memorable one for our residents.

Who We Are:
Southern Oaks is a registered charity operating on a not-for-profit basis. We’re not a care home; instead, we provide supported and independent living options for older people who value their freedom and enjoy engaging with their local community. We are proud to say that we actively reinvest back into our housing to improve the lives of our residents.
We are a welcoming retirement community that values social connection and good company. Our residents love to unwind and enjoy a drink in a relaxed, friendly atmosphere, and occasionally they invite guests to celebrate special occasions like birthdays.
 
Your time and skills can bring joy, freedom, and new experiences to someone’s retirement—join us today!
