The session itself is between 12 and 2 on Saturday afternoons. The training can vary but overall we try to teach people the basics of mechanics, checking over a bike to see if it's repairable or recyclable. We'll start a session asking you to pick a bike and we'll work through it together to assess what needs to be done. Staff are on hand to teach and help throughout.
Here is how some of our volunteers described their experience: "amazing", "hands-on", "on the job learning". They love "meeting new people with the same interests", "learning new skills" and the "lots of freedom and an element of independence".
The role is open to young volunteers aged 11 - 18.
What skills do I need?
Each young volunteer has a different level of skill depending on attendance so we adapt based on who comes in. We like to find out what you'd like to learn and guide you through the process.
