Volunteer - Handyperson
This job is brought to you by Jobs/Redefined, the UK's leading over-50s age inclusive jobs board.
Be the Helping Hands of Sense Scotland!
Looking for a practical way to give back and make a real difference?
Join us as a Volunteer Handyperson and use your skills to help keep our spaces safe, tidy, and welcoming for everyone. Whether you're retired, between jobs, studying, or simply keen to lend a hand, we'd love to hear from you!
We're looking for volunteers who can give a few hours a week-whether that's one morning, an afternoon, or a full day-we'll work around what suits you best.
Why Volunteer with Sense Scotland?
At Sense Scotland, we support children and adults with complex needs to live their best lives. Our buildings and spaces play a huge part in that-and that's where you come in! As a Volunteer Handyperson, you'll help with small repairs, odd jobs, and general upkeep, making sure our services stay safe and pleasant for everyone who uses them.
We're currently looking for a Volunteer Handyperson to support our TouchBase Glasgsow Service, based in Kinning Park.

Who We're Looking For?
You don't need to be a qualified tradesperson-just practical, reliable, and happy to roll up your sleeves. If you're good at fixing things, painting, putting up shelves, or general DIY, we'd love to have you on board.
