Volunteer Tool Collector

The role of the collector is to respond to requests from members of the public to collect tools they have to donate and to store them for the TWAM van to collect. We will normally ask you to collect within a maximum 25-mile radius of your home (although you can request a smaller area), and requests are matched based on postcodes. There is considerable flexibility in this role timewise as collections can be made at any time, which is agreed between you and the donor.

Typical tasks may include Taking calls and emails from members of the public and arranging collection times, driving to collect tools from people and bringing them back to your storage area Arranging collections from the TWAM vans.

We provide an induction to the role, which may be either over the phone, electronically or in person and a volunteer handbook on starting. You will have a named contact within TWAM for any questions or problems, and further training can be provided as required. You will also be given a TWAM Polo Shirt to wear and an ID Card if required.

From the role, you will gain warm satisfaction at the difference you are making in people's lives. You will also have opportunities if you wish to learn new skills. We will provide a reference if required for a future employer or other organisation.
