DIY Day

We're looking for volunteers to help with some DIY and clearance work at our Brackla building on Saturday 1st August. Our aim is to clear and improve parts of the grounds, as well as organise and clear the basement storage area. This work will help us create a safer and more manageable outdoor space while improving our storage facilities within the building. Whether you enjoy DIY, practical tasks, or simply want to lend a hand, we'd love your help. No specialist skills are required—just a willingness to get involved! Please note: — You must be 16 years or older to take part. — Please wear suitable outdoor clothing and sturdy footwear. — Bring a spade or shovel, sweeping brush, and work gloves if you have them. — You do not need to bring any power tools. We need a minimum of 10 volunteers to make the day possible, so we'd really appreciate your support. Please sign up below.
