We Need Your Help!

Calling All Volunteers

Your Shedders management team, composed entirely of unpaid volunteers, dedicates an immense amount of effort to run and develop our company. However, we can't do it all on our own, and we need your assistance.

Volunteer Opportunity: Management Team Member

Management Team members bring strategic thinking, organisational skills, and the confidence to drive projects forward. They don’t need expertise in every area — what matters is a proactive, cando approach, the ability to take ownership of tasks, and a willingness to work collaboratively to keep the Shed moving. Good team members are communicators, problemsolvers, and doers: people who spot opportunities, follow things through, and help turn ideas into practical action for the benefit of the group.

Volunteer Opportunity: Grant Application

We’re looking for someone who can help us secure essential funding for our communitydriven projects. This role suits someone who is organised, confident with written communication, and motivated to help a small charity grow.

What you’ll do

Research and identify suitable grant opportunities for Looe Shedders. Draft clear, persuasive applications for grants up to £5,000. Work with the management team to gather information, evidence, and stories that demonstrate our impact. Track deadlines, submissions, and outcomes to keep applications moving.

What you will bring

A methodical, detailfocused approach to gathering and presenting information. Confidence in writing clearly and persuasively. A proactive, “let’s get this done” attitude — someone who follows things through. No prior grantwriting experience is required; enthusiasm and reliability matter most.

Why this role matters

Your work will directly helps us secure the funding that keeps our Shed thriving and enables us to support creativity, wellbeing, and community connection across Looe.

Volunteer Opportunity: Help in our Repair Cafe

Are you the Mr or Mrs Fixit in your home. We could use your skills in our Repair Cafe. See Repair Cafe for more information. Alternatively we could use some reserve resources to act as receptionists in our Cafe.

Your Role:

Repairers bring practical, handson skills in one or more areas such as small electricals, mechanical items, textiles, tools, or household goods. No one is expected to know everything — each volunteer contributes in the areas they’re comfortable with, working alongside others to diagnose faults and attempt safe, simple repairs. A good repairer is curious, patient, safetyminded, and willing to share knowledge while helping visitors understand what’s gone wrong and whether an item can be fixed. To volunteer or learn more about either of these roles, please get in touch with Chris Roy via our Contact Us page
