The Hub from Greener and Cleaner is looking for handy volunteers to act as Repair Technicians at our new drop-in repair café. We are especially interested in anyone with skills in:

General household itemsElectrical appliancesBicyclesFurniture and wooden itemsTextile & Clothing Mending

What will you be doing?

We’ve created a supportive, judgement-free and engaging experience for visitors in our Hub where they can find out about climate change and what they can do about it. This is supported by an extensive events programme, including a repair cafe. Your role is central to helping reduce waste by repairing items brought to the repair cafe or, if we cannot repair an item, suggest alternative sustainable solutions or organisations that could help.

Read the full description here.

Who are we looking for?

Someone handy who likes to problem solve and repair items. Ideally with knowledge in one of these areas:

General household itemsElectrical appliancesBicyclesFurniture and wooden itemsTextiles and clothing mending

You’ll have experience of using repair tools.

Be comfortable working in a customer-facing role in a diverse community.

Be a team player. We’re mostly all part-time and/or volunteers relying on, and supporting each other, in our various roles. We’re a very friendly bunch and warmly welcome new people on the team.

If you’ve had PAT testing training this would be an advantage, but not essential, as we can provide if necessary.

It would be helpful if you could provide some relevant tools for the type of repairs you will be doing, but again not essential.

You’ll need to be over 18, please.

What difference will you make?

You’ll be part of our pilot project which, if successful, will see versions of The Hub rolled out across the UK, providing a blueprint for others to be shared and upscaled.

This is about engagement and encouragement: We want to make people feel that there are other choices to binning items, particularly if they lack the practical skills to repair items themselves. Your role will be central to the repair cafe experience, reducing waste and increasing the confidence of visitors.
