Practical DIY

We provide people with the confidence, skills, and resources to learn basic DIY skills that are transferable to their homes.

Knowing how to look after your home properly is a vital skill, but it can be hard to learn without the right tools.

Our workshops bridge the gap, allowing people to experiment and learn in a safe environment with the guidance of a professional.

The workshops go at your pace and are tailored to the group’s needs.

Whether you’re starting as someone who has never held a tool, or have some DIY experience, all participants will have the space to get hands-on with new practical skills, receive one-on-one support, and have time for questions.

All tools and materials will be provided.

Types of DIY we teach include:

  • Plumbing

  • Woodwork

  • Plastering

  • Intro to tools

This list is not extensive, if you have anything you would like to learn, let us know! We’re more than happy to take suggestions for future workshops.

We would love to see you there. These workshops are completely FREE for the Meadows residents.
