Woodwork Workshop
Our woodwork workshop is one of the most popular Day Services Workshops at Thornage Hall. This workshop provides our day service users the opportunity to develop their woodworking skills within a working environment, in our purpose built workshop. They are involved in all stages of the workshop – from research and design, measuring and cutting, to staining and finishing.
Each woodwork product is unique and a labour of love. We ensure that our workshop engages individuals with a range of abilities to encourage their personal development and allow their individuality to be expressed through the items they make.
Popular items from the woodwork workshop include Christmas themed reindeer, snowmen and Christmas trees, bird, bat and insect boxes, hanging bird feeders and bird tables. Because of the nature of our items (their size and weight), they are often only available to purchase and collect from our Thornage Hall site.
"Thank you for the Cat Nip Toys which arrived yesterday, which are very much appreciated by Archie. It has been licked, sniffed and kicked since arriving!"
"Please pass on my thanks to Anny for the beautiful card, she is very talented."

So cute!
Thornage Hall Independent Living is a non profitable organisation that provides supported living accommodation in five houses located in the beautiful surroundings of the Thornage Hall estate.
We run a biodynamic farm which provides food for those living in our houses, as well as sales to local organic outlets. We have built on the success of the farm and have converted farm buildings into studios for our Day Services offering a range of workshops - greatly enriching the lives of those people with learning disabilities who have a thirst to develop new skills within a working environment.
