Help us stay afloat during the COVID-19 closure
As a social enterprise, 94% of our income comes from trading. We have temporarily lost this entirely due to the COVID-19 emergency. Now more than ever, we rely on our long-standing customers and supporters to be able to stay afloat during this crisis. Please help us...

We are still at Stage 4, that is, open for email enquiries and sale of used Scaffold Boards only.
However, we are working through existing enquiries and hope to move to Stage 3 soon. Please help to speed this up by following our guidelines.
Phone messages and email enquiries about normal stock are currently blocking progress towards Stage 3. We love your enthusiasm but your patience is even more appreciated!
A big thank you to volunteers Emily, Guy and Will who attacked the big pile of pallets here today 😊
As part of our COVID-19 appeal, we have another request to help out in other ways - we are calling out for volunteers.
If you're bored during furlough, could you spare a couple of hours de-nailing some of the wood that has been bought in?
All work will be outside with all the appropriate social distancing measures in place.
If you're interested, please leave us a comment or call us on 📞 01235 861228

“A fantastic Aladdin’s cave of a place. Brilliant, enthusiastic and informative people. Great collection of Hardwoods. I love this place, inspires me to try and learn new skills.
I bought a gorgeous piece of Chestnut and some large pieces of Oak to build a Garden Bench, I will certainly be back for more.”
