Thank you for volunteering with Kidbrooke Repair Café. This agreement sets out what we ask of volunteers and what you can expect from us.

What We Ask of Volunteers

Volunteers agree to:

  • Treat all visitors, volunteers and organisers with courtesy and respect.
  • Follow health and safety guidance at all times.
  • Work only within their skills and experience.
  • Ask for help or support when unsure.
  • Maintain confidentiality regarding any personal information shared by visitors.
  • Arrive on time and let us know in advance if unable to attend.
  • Follow the Safeguarding Statement and report any concerns to the coordinator.

What Volunteers Can Expect

Kidbrooke Repair Café will:

  • Provide a safe and welcoming environment.
  • Offer relevant guidance and support.
  • Maintain risk assessments and health and safety procedures.
  • Treat all volunteers with respect.
  • Reimburse agreed out-of-pocket expenses.

Repair Activities

Repairs are provided on a voluntary basis.

Volunteers cannot guarantee successful repair outcomes.

Volunteers should explain the outcome and any risks clearly to visitors.

No Obligation

As this is a voluntary role, there is no obligation to attend every session.

We ask that volunteers give reasonable notice if they are unable to attend a session they have committed to.

Volunteers are not employees and do not receive payment for their time.

Volunteers may receive agreed reasonable expenses where approved.

Photography and Media

Volunteers agree that photographs taken during Repair Café activities may be used for community promotion unless they request otherwise.

Review

This agreement will be reviewed periodically.
