In our Woodwork Department, our Trainees have the benefit of receiving instruction from our experienced Woodwork Supervisor.

The Workshop is fully fitted with individual benches allowing Trainees to have a personal space in which to put into practise the skills they learn, whilst at the same time gain a sense of being part of ‘the team’ in which a friendly rivalry is often evident.

Emphasis is placed upon hand/eye coordination and tool manipulation as well as the obvious Health and Safety issues required when handling sharp tools.
The Woodwork Department also undertakes commissions from members of the public, everything from a garden gate to pieces of hand-crafted, fine furniture - often at a fraction of the cost of mass produced items.
