We are looking for Thing Technicians to volunteer a couple hours a week. At Share Bristol Library of Things in Frenchay located on the UWE Bristol Frenchay campus.
As a Thing Technician at Share Bristol, you will:
- Test out donated Things before they make it into our catalogue or as they return from being borrowed. Think tents, sewing machines, power drills, saws, popcorn makers.
- Make notes of your experience (think of it as a review) and also anything that doesn’t work, needs repairing, or is slightly quirky – so we can fix it or recycle it to ensure we only provide Things in good working order to our members.
- If you have the experience, you can fix or repair donated things that have been tested and have faults reported. Think electronics, replacing batteries, sewing, finding spare parts.
- Then, when in good working order, all Things will need cleaning ready for their photo shoot or their next borrow!
There are multiple weekday shifts available:
Tuesday 5pm - 7pm
Wednesday 12pm - 2pm
Friday 10am - 12pm
Please note: some lifting of heavy and bulky items will be involved e.g. lawnmowers
