A new community project for men aged 50 and over is due to begin in Chelmsley Wood on Friday 16 October.
Make and Mend will bring people together through woodworking, practical making, repair and restoration, according to Solihull Council's community development newsletter.
The project welcomes experienced participants and beginners. Its pilot group will help test and develop the initiative.
When and where
Friday sessions are offered from 11am to 1pm or 2pm to 4pm at Unit 21, Chelmsley Wood Industrial Estate, Waterloo Avenue, B37 6QQ.
The newsletter says the longer-term aim is to develop a sustainable community social enterprise, making useful products while giving people opportunities to learn and connect.
