Lifestyle Equals Sign We see you

Published on Wednesday 2 May, 2018

Whether it’s woodworking, painting, gardening or creating wall art, the people we support at our Wallsend Community Hub love attending the DIY Workshops at Bunnings Warehouse every fortnight.

Toni Hunt, Support Facilitator at the Wallsend Community Hub says “The team at Bunnings Warehouse Wallsend have been excellent supporters of our Hub. They supply all the equipment for the DIY Workshops, run the activities for free and have even donated plants for our vegetable garden.”

Not only do the people we support learn new practical and creative skills, they build on their social and fine motor skills.

“It’s a great way for them to get creative, have fun and learn to DIY. X and X, who conduct the workshops, are great at encouraging and inspiring our participants, so they just love going along. It’s excellent for their social development and they are always so proud to take the things that they have made home,” says Toni.

Our up and coming DIY experts have learnt to make planter boxes, paint pots, decorate Christmas wreaths, make money boxes and paint boomerangs.
