We`re Hiring!
Would you like to join the Share and Repair team? We are looking for a freelance, part-time Workshop Coordinator to help us to grow our workshop programme.
If you`d like to inspire people to develop new practical skills and build the confidence to do their own repairs, this role could be for you!
You would ideally have experience of running great sessions for both adults and children, and be creative and organised. A working knowledge of practical DIY and a passion for the environment would also be a benefit. Please see the job description on our website for more information, available through the link in our bio.
Please email ruth@shareandrepair.org.uk to apply, applications close at midnight on Wednesday the 25th March.
Earlier this year we held our second Volunteer Development Day at Roseberry Road Studios for our brilliant volunteers.
The day was arranged into sessions for skills sharing and discussions. Thank you to our volunteers who led workshops, including a darning workshop, repair top tips, a Home Energy Workshop by BWCE, and discussing ways we can improve how we work at Share and Repair.
Across all the different workshops it was inspiring to see so many people come together to learn from one another. The energy, enthusiasm, and willingness to share from all our volunteers who attended made the day truly special.
In one of our workshops we started sewing patches for a quilt that we’re putting together for our 10th birthday, which will be in April 2027. We’re hoping to get all of our 250 volunteers (and any visitors who want to take part) to contribute a square to the quilt. As our CEO Ruth described it, “reusing fabric, and coming together as a community to make something greater than its parts, which is something we do at Share and Repair”.
It was also a great opportunity for our volunteers to meet someone from a different area of our charity, as a mix of our Repair Cafe volunteers, Hub volunteers and trustees attended!
We gave out 5 year badges to our volunteers who have been with us since 2021, and our Chair of Trustees Nick gave us a round up of the year and plans for the coming year.
Thank you to all of our volunteers for their time, commitment and all that they do for Share and Repair. Thanks to Jessie and our team of staff for putting the day together, to @bwce_bath for their workshop, @gailsbakery for donating pastries and @roseberryroadstudios for the venue!
We’re already looking forward to doing this again next year!
Happy International Women`s Day!!
Today, we`re celebrating all of the amazing women at Share and Repair! We`re a charity that is founded, staffed, and volunteered at by brilliant women, many of whom you will have met at our Repair Cafes, in our Hub, and while repairing your items.
We`d like to encourage you to share or repair something this month, to celebrate International Women`s Day.
It could be something as simple as sharing a joke with someone to make them laugh, lending a friend something of yours that you know they would love to borrow, or repairing something that has been waiting for a fix.
You could learn a new repairing skill with us at one of our How To Workshops - fancy learning how to use power tools? (9th May) Would you like to gain confidence with your sewing skills? (14th March)
If you`re interested in our workshops or finding out more, head to our website. We`d love to hear what you share or repair for International Women`s Day!
