The format of The Salvation Army's Snack/Connect groups are very relaxed and allow adults of differing ages to drop in for a bowl of soup or hot filled roll prepared in the building, or even just a coffee and chat. Some tasks a group assistant could be involved in are: * Welcoming and seating visitors * Explaining what is available and taking orders * Ensuring all orders are correctly served and payment received * Clearing up finished crockery and utensils and preparing tables for new visitors | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
