Carpentry and woodworking
Measuring, cutting, joining, basic repairs, tool care and safe workshop routines.
What we do
Skills that stay. Opportunities that grow.
A practical skill can help maintain a home, improve a shared facility, create an income opportunity and give someone knowledge to pass on.
Learning by doing, safely
Training will be built around a useful outcome the community picks, such as a repaired desk or a safer storage shed. We will provide protective equipment, risk assessments and qualified trainers.
Planned training areas
Construction basics
Site preparation, reading simple plans, safe material handling and basic repairs under qualified supervision.
Plumbing and water systems
Leak identification, basic fixtures, hygiene, safe water storage and supervised repairs.
Electrical and solar fundamentals
Suitably licensed local professionals will do and supervise all wiring and regulated electrical work. Training covers electrical safety, low-voltage basics and battery care.
Tool care and project planning
Safe use, inventory, budgets, replacement parts, recordkeeping and choosing projects that can be maintained.
What support will provide
Tools, materials, safe workshop space, instruction, translation, protective equipment and supervised practice.
The longer-term ambition
Over time, participants may be able to maintain local facilities, support neighbours and share skills with others.
