We attended @achieveinbathnes` first Youth Guarantee Roadshow in January!
Run at Welton Rovers Football Club in Midsomer Norton, it was organised by @bathnescouncil in order to highlight work experience opportunities to young people who are currently not in work or education.
We had a great time talking to young people about the work experience opportunities we are offering at Share and Repair, and we had an interactive DIY challenge built by our volunteers Dick, Steve and George, and Head of Repairs Operations Julian. For the challenge, we timed the participants to see how long it took them to dismantle everything on the board, and the fastest person won a shopping voucher.
Our CEO Ruth said "It was a great day and we enjoyed meeting all the young people, got to be interviewed on @somervalleyfm and were pleased to meet people from @curo_group, @bathcollege, @bathspauni, Little Lost Robot, Rockaway Park and Zen Rebel, amongst others!"
Thank you to our volunteers Dick, Steve and George for helping to build the challenge, and to Dick for volunteering his time to attend the Youth Guarantee Roadshow with us!
We`re excited to share that we`re partnering with @bwce_bath to bring Home Energy Cafes to some of our upcoming Repair Cafes.
Home Energy Cafes are friendly drop-in sessions where you can chat with local Energy Champions about keeping your home warm, reducing energy bills and finding trusted support.
Whether you’re looking for low and no-cost solutions, or thinking about bigger home improvements, pop along to the Home Energy Cafe to explore your options.
Run by Energy Champions who`ve made changes in their own homes, the Home Energy Cafe is a chance to talk things through over a cup of coffee, and get signposted to trusted local support.
Why not drop into your nearest Repair Cafe, have a cuppa and a slice of cake while we mend your broken items, and get energy advice at the same time? This is the ideal event to meet others in your community, save money, and help reduce waste.
The Home Energy Cafes will be visiting these Repair Cafes:
Larkhall Repair Cafe - Saturday 21st February from 10am - 1pm
Peasedown Repair Cafe - Saturday 28th February from 10am - 1pm
Southdown Repair Cafe - Saturday 7th March from 10am - 1pm
Repair Cafes are run and organised by Share and Repair. The Home Energy Cafes are delivered by Bath & West Community Energy as part of Energy at Home.
More info and Repair Cafe locations on our website through the link in our bio!
We have been partnering with the Reuse Shop at Keynsham Recycling Centre for some time now, where our wonderful team of volunteers visit weekly.
Our volunteers PAT test items that are brought into the Recycling Centre and are headed for the tip. Any electrical items that are still working and safe to use are saved from landfill, and are sold in the onsite shop to go on to a new home!
We are delighted that B&NES Council have recently put up a sign outside the Reuse Shop highlighting the broader scope of what we offer as an organisation.
Hopefully it will make it easier for us to help more local residents repair rather than reuse, and borrow instead of buy!
Thanks to @bathnescouncil for the sign and the photo!
This Saturday we are running Repair Cafes at:
✨ Weston Hub, Penn Hill Road, BA1 4EH
✨ Farmborough Memorial Hall, Little Lane, Farmborough, BA2 0AH
The Repair Cafes will be running from 10am - 1pm, no need to book just turn up!
Please arrive as early as possible to ensure that there is time to work on your repair, we have limited capacity and our volunteers will do their best to help - sometimes we get really busy and we don`t want to have to turn you away!
We look forward to seeing you there.
For more information, follow the link in our bio.
Whether you`re celebrating Valentine`s, Galentine`s, or just spending time with loved ones this Saturday, why not borrow something from our Library of Things to make it extra special!
We`ve got lots of items in our Library of Things that you can discover to show your love to friends or partners. Why not:
❤️ Bake a cake in the shape of a heart and go all out with the decorating together
❤️ Indulge with our chocolate fountain or fondue sets and choose your favourite treat - cheese or chocolate? Or both!
❤️ Save the cost of a Valentine`s day set menu by cooking something special at home with our kitchen equipment
❤️ Take out our champagne glasses, make special drinks and toast to another year of companionship.
Check out the full range on our website, and show us what you got up to with the items by sending us a photo!
