Fife Council said it knows that for some people in its communities, small jobs around the house, like changing light bulbs, moving furniture or carrying out small repairs, can be impossible to carry out, not to mention unaffordable.

That’s why it has teamed up with Community Trade Hub Limited, a not-for-profit organisation with extensive experience in community support and skills development.

Together they want to provide a service to those who aren’t able and can’t afford to pay for these services. The Community Trade Hub provides a service which is trusted, reliable, accessible, and affordable.

The service is available to all, not just Fife Council tenants, but also homeowners and private tenants who need a little help.

Services include:

• Installation of washing machines
• Moving small items to the kerbside
• Furniture assembly
• Changing light bulbs
• Hanging shelves, pictures, and curtain rails
• Moving furniture
• Small joinery, plumbing, and electrical repairs

The initiative is part of the Community Trade Hub’s broader mission to empower individuals and enhance community wellbeing through practical support and learning opportunities.
