The experience

We need help with all types of building, our sanctuary is entirely run by volunteers and this includes building. We build from recycled materials where possible. We always need help in every area of building, such as carpentry, welding, general handyman, plumbing, electrics, natural building, technicians. Please consider this is a really hard job, done mostly under the sun, lifting heavy materials and working together with high-skilled workers.
