Budleigh Community Workshop

At the outset of the Covid in March 2020, the Budleigh Community Workshop Trust set about raising money to purchase the local redundant Fire Station and convert it to a space where individuals could meet, socialise and learn new skills. The benefits of such a facility was not lost on the community and they valiantly rallied and provided both financial support and volunteers to the project. Significant funds from the League of Friends enabled the Trust to succeed in the purchase and refurbishment of the building and now it is a thriving community asset, where many local users enjoy creative activities together and make new friends.

The Trust is indebted to the League of Friends (Now 'The Budleigh Fund') for their confidence in our community project and for their extremely generous grant, without which we would have struggled.
