Get hands-on helping with coffin finishing while supporting others in a relaxed, social workshop space.
This is a practical, hands-on role where you’ll help with the final stages of coffin making. That might include sanding, painting, attaching hardware, or lending a hand to members who are decorating and personalising their own coffins.
You’ll be working alongside others in a friendly, down-to-earth environment where people share stories, skills, and a few laughs along the way. Some people know exactly what they want to do, others need a bit of guidance, and you’ll be there to support where needed.
You don’t need to be a builder or expert. If you’re reasonably handy and keen to get involved, the team will show you what to do.
Good fit for someone who:
Enjoys practical, hands-on work
Is happy to pitch in and help wherever needed
Likes working alongside others in a shared space
Is open-minded and comfortable around conversations about life and death
Some basic practical skills like sanding or painting are helpful, but not essential
Reliable and takes pride in doing things properly
Comfortable working independently when needed
Respectful of others and their stories
Willing to follow workshop health and safety guidelines
Flexible involvement on Saturday mornings between 9am and 12pm (excluding long weekends and public holidays).
No need to attend every week.
