Social Media Co-ordinator Repair Cafe

The Repair Cafe in Uckfield is a part of Sussex Support Services based in Victoria Pleasure Ground. Set up to help counter the culture of throwing items away the moment something goes wrong, they repair a whole range of household items people bring along. Their categories include: clothes/textiles, bicycles, electrical appliances, computers/software issues, general woodwork, tool sharpening, general maintenance on furniture and wooden objects.

It is held at Victoria Pavilion on the 4th Saturday of every month, except for December.

Are you looking to gain experience professionally with social media? Or perhaps looking to use your talent with it to help others?

Uckfield Repair Café are seeking one or two volunteers to assist them with their social media presence. The role will involve attending their café sessions each month, taking photos to then use online. Additionally you’ll get the opportunity to speak to customers, and write up their stories.

Any applicants will need to be IT literate, and familiar with social media. There is no age limit for this role, you just need to be able to attend their sessions on the 4th Saturday of each month (except for December). Sessions run from 9am until 12:30pm, and the role will commence this month on the 28th of September.

This is the perfect opportunity for someone looking to get their foot in the door of working in social media, but equally may be perfect for someone wishing to expand their knowledge of the platforms, and do so by sharing the amazing work that goes on at the repair café.
