Laverstoke and Freefolk Parish Council launched Test Valley Men’s Shed in the mid-2010s. At first, the flooring was rotten and walls were bare. A local electrician help to run wiring for wall-mounted sockets. Furniture, heaters and machine tools were donated by generous members and, before long, a fully-functioning club and workshop emerged. By 2016/7, we were getting some great press. We meet on Tuesdays and Thursdays between 9am and 12noon. The atmosphere is friendly and relaxed and members chat, share a cuppa and work on individual or collaborative projects – mainly wood and metal work – through the course of the morning. Currently we have 18 members and welcome more. If you are interested to join, or see what we get up to, please pop along to the club or telephone Nick on 07899 840057.
The Guatemalan Families Association (GFA) is a charity for families living in Britain who have adopted or are in the process of adopting children from Guatemala. Our primary goal is to support internationally adopted Guatemalan children to connect with their Guatemalan roots. We also support two Guatemalan NGO's. The history of violence against indigenous populations, natural disasters, poverty, and illiteracy can best be dealt with in partnership with Guatemalans. Behrhorst projects promote self-sufficiency, foster community development, and enhance the education and health of people working to make a better life for their children and communities. Pueblo a Pueblo projects respond to the devastating poverty and deprivation in targeted indigenous villages. Projects work to build the community’s ability to thrive on its own while achieving health, food security, and education for local families. Many GFA families have visited the villages where these two charities are working. They have seen the difference our contributions make. Together, we will make the struggle to survive and be productive a little easier. Charity No: 1105241 Find out more Website http://www.gfa-uk.org/drupal/

Our patented dress design has been developed so it can be used as an enterprise tool, the sales of which are fed back into our charity pot to grow and support more people out of poverty. The clever cut, pleats and carefully situated ties on the dress eliminate the need for zips, other trimmings and complex machinery. The project can therefore support makers from situations of hardship, even in remote parts of the world. The project has been developed specifically for charity work, based around Christian ethical values.
