Interested in Volunteering at the Bike Shed?
Great, we’d love to have your help!

I don’t know much, can I still help out?
Yes you can. Bicycle repair is difficult, but if you’re keen to learn and put in the effort, we can help you.

Where do I start?

  1. Read our Volunteer Handbook and Visit the Bike Shed to speak to the volunteers.
  2. The next induction is from 10am-12pm on 19/03/23. If you can attend, fill in the induction form and shoot any questions to secretary@thebikeshed.org.au.
  3. Attend the induction, and meet your fellow new volunteers!

Advantages of Volunteering

Improve your bike repair skills – at the bike shed we think that learning comes from doing, and you’ll learn lots helping others with their bikes

Lunch is provided – we always stop and have lunch and we insist all volunteers have lunch with us and get a snack or two during the day.
This is partially to reward the volunteers for their time, but more importantly it gives the volunteers a much needed break and a chance to get to know the other volunteers.

Training days – periodically we have in-depth training days. Past topics have included three speed hubs and wheel building.

That warm fuzzy feeling from helping others and promoting bikes and building a better future.
