Summary
Are you often seen with a spanner in hand? This is an amazing opportunity to share your skills and motorbike passion whilst making a real difference.Detailed description
Are you often seen with a spanner in hand? This is an amazing opportunity to share your skills and motorbike passion! At the same time you’ll be enabling people in recovery to make a positive contribution to their own ongoing recovery and the wider community.
Main task is the delivery of motorbike maintenance training sessions to a small group, from basic maintenance (e.g. pre-ride checks), through to college entry level skills – whatever level you can offer.
Can you support Next Steps Recovery Hub members to learn new skills in motorbike/scooter maintenance from basic to college entry level mechanic skills? This also enables members to increase their confidence, make a positive contribution to their own ongoing recovery and the wider community and increases their employability.
You may also like to:
- Assist in the development of a training plan for maintenance/mechanic skills training
- Support the team to ensure the safety of staff, volunteers and members within the training programme and adherence to Health and Safety requirements
- Where appropriate, signpost to further training or employment opportunities
- Support and motivating individuals
- Help in set up equipment for training sessions
Personal qualities are also important such as:-
good listening skills
positive attitude
reliability
good communication skills
We are a happy community with lots of laughs, great people and tea and coffee on tap! On certain days you can even get one of our delicious meals or cake!
We welcome people from all backgrounds.

As well as the individuals themselves, our work also creates social change and improvements to the local community in a range of different ways. These include improved family relationships and friendships, reductions in drug/alcohol misuse, reduced strain on local health and wellbeing services, reductions in rates of offending, and improved skills and employment outcomes for our service users, all of which help to regenerate the local community.
