Activities

We meet weekly to pursue individual or group projects, mostly enjoyable and useful wood, metalwork or craft. We make small wooden items to raise funds and do outreach projects for other charities. We enjoy our coffee breaks with biscuits and sometimes cakes when we discuss matters of common interest. We say: It's not about the destination but more about the journey. If it's not fun we don't do it!
