Children’s Homes / Training
Masonry Training
We have established a partnership with a boys’ Certified Home. This institution provides secure accommodation for between 20 and 30 boys who have been detained by the criminal courts. If the boys are able to acquire some technical skills before they leave the home at 18 their prospects on release will be much better. With this goal in mind we are funding a masonry and stonework teacher. He is teaching the boys essential skills including bricklaying and plastering. We have seen the high standards of workmanship that the boys are achieving. They are motivated and enjoy the stimulating classes.
