Community Union Defence League
Logo for Community Union Defence League

Community Union Defence League is a not-for-profit organisation. Our priority is to build mutual aid networks around Australia where working people can help other struggling working people by developing essential programs that will help families and individuals being crushed by an unfair system designed for the rich.

CUDL has maintained a weekly street kitchen in Martin Place where food and other necessities have been distributed since 2018. It has grown and currently distributes over 300 meals per week to people in need of solidarity. We look at our work as mutual aid whereby we help each other through the rough patches that so many people experience in a socially and economically unjust society.

As a driver for the Community Union Defence League you will be required to commit to driving on a Sunday once a month during the times of 11:00am to 3:00pm. This should be approximately 3 hours maximum 4 hours of driving in total.

The position will be picking up food from other Volunteers who have very generously donated food to the kitchen. Note: You will be reimbursed for Petrol but your own car is required.

  • Get the food to the Kitchen in a timely manner. 3:15 is the preferred time of arrival.
  • Use a mask during COVID – 19 and use gloves.
