By the end of the workshop, you will be itching to go home, dig out the shelf that you bought in Ikea all those months ago, and put it up on the wall.

We will provide all materials, tools etc. However, if you want to bring along your own tools, ongoing projects etc. then feel free to do so.

We also have hot drinks – tea, coffee etc. Feel free to bring your own additional refreshments, if you want to.

We recommend wearing old clothing, and sturdy shoes.
If you would like to bring your own PPE (Personal Protectve Equipment), please feel free to do so. We will proide PPE, but we know that some people would prefer to use their own. (We recommend that you mark them up with your names, so that you can identify them)

We are confident that you will go home with new DIY confidence. You will no longer feel like a DIY Beginner, and will be raring to get on with some DIY tasks at home.
