After home maintenance, I got a discount on 4 courses – plumbing, tiling, carpentry and plastering. All the courses had a great instructor and packed in a lot over the 2 weekends, but still allowed plenty of time for asking questions on home projects as well as the tasks that we were doing. I would highly recommend attending the centre.

Particularly impressed with the care Sally & others took to prepare detailed ‘risk assessment’ for my participation on course when advised of my pregnancy (20 weeks).
