Free for all to attend, but it would be helpful if you can let us know you're coming via @EventbriteUK so we can plan for numbers.

Day 2 of our first pre-1919 buildings repair & maintenance course at Wingfield Station today.
Yesterday 9 learners had a mix of theory & practical (hot mix lime & measuring/gauging sticks) training.
Great for all levels of (perceived) knowledge as the last slide demonstrates!
