Greening Maindee

We create and maintain public green spaces in Maindee.

Thank you for booking on this event. We look forward to meeting you on the day. Make sure you wear clothes for the weather and sturdy footwear. Refreshments will be provided.

Join the Greening Maindee team to learn about maintaining public gardens and creating new ones. You'll learn to use hand tools and machinery safely, get to know how to look after the plants and trees and other nature in the gardens and all in a safe and supportive environment.

This is an opportunity to work as part of the Greening Maindee volunteer team to maintain the public gardens, create new spaces and learn new gardening and practical skills.

St.Marys Church

This is a four day woodworking course for all abilities where you will learn about preparing, planning and building a rainwater planter from recycled wood using hand and machine tools.

This social enterprise scheme collects and recycles 'waste' wood. They use it to make unique handmade items from some of the wood and sell them in the workshop. They have many wood working machines and tools and give training on how to use them.
