Organisation Details
The Gateway Centre, established by the Ravenscliffe Community Association in 1983, is a charity serving the Ravenscliffe and Greengates communities in Bradford, UK. It addresses poverty, social exclusion, and unemployment by offering food aid, children’s activities, coffee mornings, family law advice, skills courses, job clubs, money management help, and volunteering opportunities. The centre also runs community events, a pay-what-you-can café, and well-being groups, promoting empowerment and better quality of life for local residents.
Project Details
This well used community centre has two tasks they are looking to complete:
- Repaint training room
- Paint outdoor shipping containers
Date & Number of volunteers
This project will take place on either below date:
- Thursday 27th February 2025
We are looking to recruit up to 10 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 construction gardening and painting activities and are required to wear old and reasonably robust clothing. Volunteers should pay particular attention to footwear wearing tough shoes or boots. This is a relatively low risk challenge and where personal protective equipment is required it will be provided. This will include latex free gloves to protect rings etc when painting. Please be aware if you are painting, you will get this on your clothing and will not wash out. Again we recommend wearing clothing you don’t mind spoiling. If volunteers wish to bring their own gloves they are welcome to do so. This challenge is taking place outdoors and as such the volunteers should be prepared for inclement weather or sunshine.
Materials, tools and equipment
Tools and materials will be provided by Participate Projects.
