🧸 What does Volunteer Toy Library duty REALLY look like?
We know the word “duty” can sound a little scary, but we promise it’s nothing to be nervous about! ❤️
As part of our membership options, members can choose to complete 2 x 2-hour volunteer sessions over the course of the year in exchange for a cheaper membership. They don't have to be completed at the same time — you can spread your two sessions throughout the year to suit you. 😊
So, what do you actually do?
The main job is to check off returned toys, give them a clean and put them back on the shelves ready for their next little adventurer. 🧼🧸
There are also other little jobs you might help with, like processing and labelling new toys, organising things, and, during quieter times, giving our shelves and storage areas a good tidy and clean.
You don't need to know where everything goes, you don't need any special skills and you certainly don't need to be a Toy Library expert! 😆 We'll show you what to do, and you're never left wondering what you're supposed to be doing.
And as you can see from our photos… sometimes little helpers join in too! 🥰
Our Toy Library is powered by wonderful volunteers, and every two-hour session makes a real difference in keeping our toys clean, complete, organised and ready for families to enjoy.
So if you've been thinking “I'd love the cheaper membership, but I'm a bit nervous about doing duty…” — come and give it a go! ❤️
We promise it's not scary. It's just two 2-hour sessions across the year, a few toys, a bit of cleaning and being part of our lovely Toy Library community. 🧸✨
We'd love to have you on the team! 💕
