For some people, the thought of building a wardrobe or tidying up their garden brings them out in a cold sweat – but for others, it’s a total walk in the park.
Now thanks to a new partnership between Dunelm and Airtasker – an online marketplace that connects people who need things done with those who have the time and skills to do them – locals can start earning extra money doing tasks for others in their community.
As the UK’s leading homewares retailer, Dunelm has found its customers are ‘crying out’ for people who can help them with tasks like assembling furniture, fixing things around the house, decorating, gardening, cleaning, sewing, alterations, heavy lifting, and loads more.
And so, it has partnered up with Airtasker so ‘taskers’ can offer their assistance to those who need it.
