Fylde Repair Cafe is launching a “House to Home” project, with members of the community group wanting to pass skills on to families, young people and recently housed residents so they can turn their space into a home.
And the skills sharing organisation is also running community gardening sessions where people can pick up tips and drop-in sewing events at the Art B&B on the Promenade.
Organisers said the gardening project, “Grow Your Own”, was a direct response to post Covid anxiety preventing community members attending face-to-face sessions, allowing people to get outside and garden in the fresh air.
The volunteers use the space behind the Art B&B and have created an area accessible to all following donations of compost, gloves and pots, biscuits and refreshments from Asda as part of their Community Connection programme and Travis Perkins donated wood to create the fence.
