About

Woodwork Youth Support Project

Bristol Tree Craft is a young, dynamic C.I.C. which tackles social isolation and strengthens community by bringing people in Bristol’s most deprived areas together to learn traditional woodwork. We run free-to-access group sessions in local natural spaces, making personalised items out of fresh wood using only hand tools. Inclusivity and empowerment are at our core: we work closely with other locally rooted-community organisations to reach our participants, facilitate their access to green space and foster their agency through learning heritage craft. We work primarily with NEET youth, refugees/asylum seekers and those accessing mental health support services, always seeking to address our four core outcomes:

1. Supporting good choices, employment & training

2. Combatting social isolation

3. Providing access to nature

4. Tackling poor mental health
