Would You Like To Volunteer With Breathing Spaces?

Posted on 06 June 2022

Breathing Spaces are having a little get-together for TTW volunteers, just to say thank you for all their hard work. It’s at Maybridge Keystone Centre on Sunday June 26th from 5pm for a couple of hours and we thought that, if you are interested in volunteering for TTW, you might like to join us so you can find out how you can get involved?

For example, Breathing Spaces would love to involve more volunteers at both our tiny sustainable flower farm at Maybridge and also at the downland barnyard in Sompting. We currently have practical sessions on Thursday mornings and the first Sunday of every month, but if those times don’t suit you, we also need help, especially with watering (best done in the morning or late afternoon/early evening) on a Saturday, and there could be a small group on other days. Why not come and see how our garden grows?

There will be volunteers there from other TTW projects to talk to and find out more. If you want to join us, please email [email protected] for more information, and to help us with numbers for catering.

Another very busy Repair Cafe on Saturday. Our wonderful repairers never fail to amaze us by mending things that they've been told cannot be mended, or have been quoted astronomic sums for a potential repair, when it actually takes 20 minutes to sort it out!

Sadly it's not possible to mend everything that's brought in but it's always worth coming along to check stuff out. Please always think before you throw!

Great service for the community as well as the environment! 👏🏻

Well done everyone

Really good group at Climate Resilience Centre Worthing - CREW on Saturday for our workshop about practical ways to reduce flood risk and pollution from surface water run off. Lisa and I covered making rain gardens and storm water planters to slow the flow, Ryan shared details of using harvested rainwater to flush a loo and Vernon explained how to build soakaways and add one-way valves to drains to prevent sewage water backing up into properties during flooding. See Transition Town Worthing CIC website Resources for handouts and a You Tube film on building rain gardens. And pop into CREW to add any locations of known flood risk spots to a flood risk map of Worthing and Lancing. ... See MoreSee Less

Busy month at our 2 community allotments, mending, planting, tidying and getting it all ready for spring planting. Yesterday we saw a baby slow worm, a peacock butterfly and the robins were around the whole time. ... See MoreSee Less

What a joy it is to run a repair cafe - there are some wonderful stories to share and it's so good to know that you are not only saving something from being dumped, but you are also bringing happiness into someone's life when their much treasured possessions are brought back to life. Do take a look through these photos and you will see what I mean. Our team of repairers are so talented - willing to try to fix most things and are really kind, helpful and good fun - what more could we wish for. ... See MoreSee Less
