Flintshire County Council, GB Second Chance Upcycling Skills

Complete

Project operator Hft recruited 20 volunteer teachers for cohorts of up to 75 adults with learning disabilities. Upcycling courses taught participants in the first cohort how to bring old bikes back into use. Future courses expanded upcycling projects to household electronics and furniture. Refurbished items are sold at two storefronts as well as Etsy and eBay shops. Flintshire County Council uses revenues from product sales to fund Second Chance.
