The Green Champions Foundation Programme is comple The Green Champions Foundation Programme is completely dedicated to new volunteers who are in need of some wellbeing support. We welcome adult volunteers in supported and sociable sessions which are designed to increase confidence, and positive mental well-being. It is ideally suited for people who might feel isolated or anxious and want to contribute to their community. For those who are between jobs or retired. For moms who would like to have a time for themselves and meet other people. You can join us whether you are advanced in carpentry or you would like to learn how to use tools and learn basic skills. We still have 3 places for Carpentry volunteering in our signature Green Champions Foundation Programme. The volunteering takes place at 2c Bakers Avenue E17 9AW on Tuesday 10.00am - 12.30pm. Places will be given to the first 3 people who claim it. If you are interested in taking part or you know someone who would like to join us, please let me know.
