Volunteer Opportunities
There are so many possibilities, but the main tasks usually undertaken are:
1. You will be collect tool from requests made by the general public through the TWAM website.
2. You will promote TWAM locally to generate your own tool donation requests.
3. You will store the tools until and arrange collection by a TWAM van.
4. You will sort the tools so all broken and unsuitable tools are removed before the van collects.
5. You will do basic tool refurbishment as facilities and skills allow.
6. You will visit shows, farmers markets, local events etc. to promote TWAM and tool donations.
7. You will offer talks and demonstrations to churches and other local groups to encourage their support.
8. You will work with your local Tool Collectors, Volunteer Speakers and Community Fundraisers to have a real impact on your community.
9. You will offer support to other potential groups who need advice on how to set up and run a group.
You may not do all of these things, but they are examples of what Local Groups do for TWAM.

Local Groups need a Group Coordinator who will be first contact for TWAM. They need people who share our passion for tools and our desire to save them from landfill. Ideally people who can speak passionately to neighbours and friends about TWAM.
We are looking for well organised people who can work together, support each other and share ideas that will get the group off the ground and keep It going.
