a mobile joke shop. I have been responsible for more stink bombs than Dennis the Menace
All I have is hustles.
I walked out of management in social care in October 21.
I mainly work agency shifts with a few sessions of instructing too.
Got some stuff brewing for this year after last year's experiments/ trial runs.
I offer nature walks locally as well but that's a charitable act at present

Not really a side hustle but it contributed a cornet or two to a holiday over a year.
I used to run flute workshops. In the first half we made flutes together and in the second half we learned to play them - even if participants had never played an instrument before.
The work involved depended upon the venue. At festivals I’d only got a couple of hours for everything so a lot of prefabrication went on.
In an ideal situation a group would have a flute day. We’d make flutes in the morning. Enjoy a shared lunch and then play and I’d tell flute stories for the afternoon.
I still have all the tools. Goodness knows how much the conduit would cost these days.
What I do not have is the public liability insurance.

Running my own companies for 30 years it was hard to leave the work behind so I used to get involved in all manner of additional stuff, including:
non-exec positions advising small businesses
chairing a volunteer group
delivering off-road/4x4 training
delivering recovery and winch training
wilderness skills training
But, they weren't side hustles because I didn't charge for most of them

I’m sure a few of you already know this, but I have a workshop where I make all manner of things from furniture to canoe paddles to timber framed porches. It would be nice if one day it progressed from a side hustle to a full time job, but I’ll take what I have at the moment and enjoy the variety.
I've started a watch company and am in the process of bringing my design to market. What a journey!
I could do a Bushcraft variant with the case made from Ferrocennium, a striker in the Clasp and the strap made of hemp!
Seriously dude ,when the time is right don't be shy!!

I've been selling leather work on the side for a few years, I'm hoping to start incorporating some canvas/fabric work into the mix once it's up to a saleable standard.
Being self employed and running my own business means I am very fortunate in as much as I can shift the balance between my main job and my other work relatively easily.
I'm looking for other, more passive incomes to tick along in the background too.

Hi All,
By trade I am a manufacturing/engineering manager, project manager, and financial investor. I use to be in the electrical/mechanical arena within the power generation sector. Now semi retired at 52 I give my time to the Canal & River Trust, although my main income is investing. Currently managing a project on the Pontcysyllte Aqueduct in Wales. This doesn’t go without challenges, constraints, and risks from internal/external stakeholders, so can be a full time job!
I felt I needed to give something back…
If anyone is in the location of Staffordshire and into wild camping and canoeing let me know..
Regards
Dan

I bet! You’ll have been jumping through hoops and getting tangled in red tape I’d imagine. Not to mention spending a bit over budget
As soon as you’re secure enough to show us, please do.
I have couple things. I do wood burning stoves and tripod firepits etc and if i feel like it Pub doors.(did the bushcraft show several times) Cover shifts for prison service and some stewarding ( my sia License expired a year back so im renewing it as soon as opportunity allows its a bit of extra cash but i hate it ( too many twats with badges and little Hitler's)
I was a busker in Kings Cross and Hammersmith in London many years ago- electric guitar with a battery amp doing Jimi Hendrix and Jazz stuff. Irish jigs and reels and occasional classical tune on the banjo and mandolin and melodica. Left the house at 8 or 9am and back home at midnight -not really a side hustle as it was long hours but it was to support my studies. Not a great amount of money either but enough to buy my food.
I got £1 from David Seaman in Hammersmith when he was on his way to see Riverdance. He threw it into my open guitar casefrom quitre a distance-really I should have dived and caught it before it landed in the case.was

I invest, and trade in financial securities. This is more than just a side hustle, it is something that I am passionate about and something that I wish to take full time some day.
