What's on
From family support, fitness classes and learning to art exhibitions, festivals and talks, our activities are wide and far reaching.
Timber that would otherwise have entered demolition waste streams, destined for chipping and incineration, has instead been collected, prepared for reuse and manufactured into ‘cross-laminated secondary timber’ (CLST) and ‘glued-laminated secondary timber’ (glulamST).
This innovation provides a low-carbon alternative to structural materials such as concrete and steel. Timber structures also store carbon over the long-term – whereas incinerating waste wood releases the carbon captured by trees back into the atmosphere.
CLST and glulamST have a fully traceable, local, socially fair supply chain. Implemented at scale, this circular system drives new employment opportunities in reclamation and manufacturing close to cities.
