Electrical Repairer

We’re always looking for people with electrical repair skills who are happy to share their knowledge with others. We view those bringing in items as co-repairers and get them involved in repairing their item, as much as possible. Co-repairers sit at the table with the volunteer repairer to help and/or learn about their item and fixing it.

If you are good at fixing electrical items we would love to hear from you; we will provide shadow sessions with a fellow Volunteer to begin with. We need Volunteer Electrical Repairers for our Repair Café sessions in the city centre Cascades Weds 10am-1pm or Sat 10am – 1pm.

You will be able to do weekly, monthly or ad hoc sessions depending on your availability.
