Goldfinch Decorating

I was super excited to be a part of DIY SOS for the past week. What an amazing privilege it was to have the skills, knowledge, and being able to take time off work to help out and change a families life for the better.

It was an experience not to miss! A week of ealry starts and late finishes, long days, making new friends, sharing laughs and tears, working amongst other very skilled trades people, volunteers and helpers. All of which were genuine and kind people, and everyone had a amazing team spirit when it came to just cracking on and getting on with it, regardless the rainy wetaher conditions we were faced with and the obstacles we had to overcome during the build.

Seeing so many people give up their time to volunteer and help makes you realise that the world isn't all doom and gloom.

Glad to be able to work alongside one of my best friends and sharing this unforgettable experience!

110% will be doing it again if the opportunity arises💪DIY SOS, you've been an unforgettable experience, till next time😎

What a team. Very grateful. News on our expansion coming soon 🥰
