BBC DIY SOS: the big build

Viewers of BBC1 might have seen an episode of DIY SOS: the big build from Hopesay, Shropshire recently which helped a local family rebuild their home, and their lives. Hopesay is just a few miles from us here at Bishop’s Castle.

After a series of misfortunes the family were left with a house and garden in an un-liveable state, with no electricity or heating, no bathroom, kitchen or bedrooms, and with bare walls and flooring forced to share a caravan in the garden.

We were happy to donate some timber to the project to transform the house and garden and we wish the family all the best for their future.
