A solid effort from the #Gateshead Maker's Space: This week trainees have mostly been experimenting with #cement. We like to mix things up a bit and make concrete progress with interesting materials. This heavy-duty table lamp and stool really paves the way. #makers #creativity

Our partner Liaison, Christa just visited our amazing partner @HandcraftedDHM who we just completed another house for last week!
She went to 3 different houses and in each one a tenant had crafted their own bed in the Handcrafted workshop! We think they did an awesome job!

The #lockdown has threatened to destroy essential support networks for people who were only just keeping their heads up. Our workers have had a unique opportunity to survey the issues that those we are supporting are facing quietly at home. #SmallCharityNE #SmallCharityWeek
