Events
A participant constructs a temporary shelter at one of our Hands on weekends.
Upcoming events
UK: RedR South-west are pleased to be teaming up with Shelterbox to hold a practical day based around Shelter and Camp Management on Saturday 18 May in Tiverton. The training will cost just £20 which will cover costs of refreshments (tea/coffee and lunch) as well as a donation to RedR & Shelterbox.
The day will begin at 10am and will finish at 6pm. There are facilities for camping on the Friday and Saturday nights (i.e. a field!) for those who are wishing to come from further away.
For more information about the activity and to book your place, contact Robert Read.
Bangladesh: 9-21 September 2013 in Dhaka Bangladesh, run by the Housing and Hazards group based at the University of Exeter.
This is not your average package holiday! Working in a group of up to 20 people with two local NGOs, you will learn first hand the challenges and vulnerabilities of a hand-to-mouth existence and will experiment with building technologies aimed at giving millions of people durable, hazard-resistant homes.
For more information about the two week workshop's activities, download the flyer or contact Sally Walters or Robert Hodgson.
