Door Huggers

Are you interested in helping us make ‘door huggers’ (draft excluders) to help people keep the heat in and their rooms cosy this winter?

Our Scene CIC is funding this project to offer some practical action to help our Brandwood neighbours during the cost of living and energy crisis.  We are using donated material and components from Birmingham Scrapstore. 

How you can get involved
