Banbridge DIY Course

May 17, 2026

What am incredible weekend led by the fabulous Sarah. Myself and 10-odd intrepid DIY’ers arrived on Saturday with – to be honest – no idea what was to come (Top Tip…. read the emails! 😂).

By the end of the two days every one of us had used and understood how to use the following:

A Combi Drill

An Impact Driver

A Circular Saw

A Jigsaw

A Chop Saw

We learned how to identify, select and match the right drill bits, screws with the right materials. We built a stud wall , we hung shelves. We learned about different wall fixings and what to use where.

We build something to bring home (a tool box), we built confidence, and we built friendships. We laughed, we learned and we helped each other.

I can’t recommend this course highly enough, and have signed up for the Electrics course in July.

Thank you again Sarah!

Both Ellen and Michelle were friendly and welcoming. Ellen showed us around the basics of car maintenance and did it effortlessly. She made it fun, interesting and I have a newfound confidence in the areas she taught us. I came away from the training wanting to attend more courses and bring more friends! Thank you.

Amazing course

April 26, 2026

I had such a great experience on this DIY course. It was led by women, for women, and that made such a difference to the overall atmosphere. It felt really welcoming and completely non-intimidating, which isn’t always the case when learning practical skills like this.

Everything was explained in a very clear, hands-on way. Instead of just being shown what to do, we were actually guided through it step by step, which made it feel achievable and built confidence quickly. No question felt silly, and there was a real focus on making sure everyone understood what they were doing and why.

I came away not only with projects I’m really proud of, but with a much stronger sense that I can tackle DIY myself going forward. It’s such a valuable skill set, and this course made it feel accessible rather than overwhelming.

Would highly recommend to anyone who wants to learn practical DIY skills in a supportive and empowering environment.
