Heaton Community Centre

Confirmed – GXO – Friday 27th June 2025

Organisation Details

Heaton Community Centre (BD9) is eager to transform its run-down building into a welcoming space for local residents. As part of their plans, they’re hosting a community event on 29th June, featuring an open-air cinema celebrating cultural heritage, life journeys, and intergenerational storytelling. The management group is now looking for a business team to help bring the centre to life with a fresh coat of paint before the big day.

Project Details

Redecorating will include:

Preparing surfaces
Painting walls – 2x coats
Painting doors – gloss
Painting skirting boards – gloss

Date & Number of volunteers

To ensure this is completed before the event on the 29^th June, we have identified the below date to complete the restoration.

Friday 27^th June

We are looking to recruit teams between 10-20 volunteers

On-site support

On the day Participate will be providing a member of staff to support the volunteers. A trained first aider and first aid kit will be available during the challenge. A ‘Tools Talk’ and health and safety briefing will be given by Participate at the beginning of the day.

Preparation

Volunteers will be undertaking painting activities and are required to wear old and reasonably robust clothing that you will not mind getting paint on. We do offer paint overalls, although these do not guarantee no damage to clothing. We also require sensible sturdy footwear, avoiding heels and open toe footwear. Where personal protective equipment is required, it will be provided.

Materials, tools and equipment

Tools and materials will be provided by Participate Projects.
