About the Renewal Programme
The Renewal Programme has been serving Newham’s communities for over 50 years. We support over 3,000 people each year through advocacy, housing, education and community initiatives. Our vision is vibrant and integrated Newham communities where everyone has access to suitable jobs, homes, health and education. This role is central to delivering that vision. If you are ready to lead a supported housing service with purpose, integrity and ambition, we would love to hear from you.

About the role:
The Food Delivery Coordinator will lead the delivery of a pioneering zero‑carbon foodbank home‑delivery service, funded through the King Charles III Charitable Fund (Coronation Food Project). This service supports residents who are housebound due to age, disability or illness and cannot attend the food bank in person. Using trained volunteer cyclists and eco‑friendly cargo bikes, the project will distribute food within a 3‑mile radius, increasing food security while reducing carbon emissions.

The coordinator is responsible for ensuring smooth weekly operations, volunteer support, partnership coordination, compliance, monitoring and successful delivery of project outcomes.
