The Keepers

The Keepers is a community hub serving Wotton Under Edge and the surrounding areas. We also run two mini hubs supporting rural communities in Kingswood and Charfield. We are open from 9-4pm on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays and from 9-1pm on Wednesdays and Fridays.

We are a friendly supportive team who welcome applicants who are flexible and willing to get stuck in and turn their hand to most things! No one day is ever the same in our thriving community hub.

Our work experience placements would suit anyone who is interested in working with a diverse range of people of all ages, who may be experiencing hardship in some way whether that be financial, emotional or physical. A degree, further studies or just an interest in sociology, social care/social work, mental health support/the law would be an advantage. 

We can provide support for our roles which range from admin support, meet and greet, kitchen cafe, etc. You would also get a flavour of what it is like to work, run and maintain a small community hub, working alongside staff team members to coordinate volunteers and manage volunteer rotas; manage our transport and volunteer drivers; be duty manager for the day, understand our social media, marketing and communications needs and learn more about our outreach programme.

• Summer placements would be preferred to help with volunteer gaps from April to October. 
• One or two weeks work experience placement would be preferable - part time hours would be considered.
