The Lammermuir Larder Group is a local community food initiative based in Haddington, East Lothian. Established in 2021, our goal is to build a more resilient community through addressing the inequalities in our local area. Originally a constituted group, we became a Scottish Incorporated Charitable Organisation in May 2025.
Our emergency food initiative together with our advocacy and advice service are a lifeline for people in crisis, providing a holistic approach to support those in challenging situations. By addressing the root causes of food insecurity and providing tailored support, we help individuals and families get back on their feet and build a more sustainable future. Later this year we're launching our Let's Cook initiative and in June we launched our Community Shop, designed to support those on low incomes helping them to stretch their food budgets whilst at the same time alleviating food waste.
We couldn't do what we do without our team of dedicated volunteers. They bring a huge amount of life experience and skills to the Larder ensuring our clients are always treated with dignity and respect.
We are looking for an organised and compassionate Coordinator to manage the smooth operation of the Lammermuir Larder. This vital position involves overseeing the daily running of the Larder, working with a diverse team of volunteers, and ensuring that everyone who accesses the service is treated with dignity and respect. The Coordinator will be responsible for food stock management, volunteer support, and building strong relationships with clients, donors, stakeholders, and partner organisations. The role also requires responding promptly and helpfully to enquiries from clients, volunteers, and external partners, always maintaining a welcoming and well-organised environment.
