Scholemoor Beacon is a vibrant community hub serving the Scholemoor Estate, a small social housing area in Bradford facing significant economic challenges. They provide essential support through a wide range of services, including employment advice, youth action groups, and “wellbeing cafes” for older residents. By offering practical resources like a digital hub and a “pay-as-you-feel” marketplace, the organisation empowers local people of all ages to improve their quality of life, fostering a stronger, more resilient community.

Project Details

This well used centre is showing real signs of wear and tear. We are seeking teams of volunteers to support:

Interior

  • Paint Corridors and Reception
  • Paint Office

Exterior

  • Paint exterior walls

All the above spaces will follow the same process; Prepare surfaces > First coat (Acrylic Durable Matt) > Second Coat (Acrylic Durable Matt)

Volunteer Number

We are seeking 5–15 volunteers.

On-site support

On the day Participate will be providing a member of staff to support the volunteers. A trained first aider and first aid kit will be available during the challenge. A tools talk and health and safety briefing will be given by Participate at the beginning of the day. We will also share with you our completed Risk Assessment for your own records.

Preparation

Volunteers will be undertaking painting activities and are required to wear old and reasonably robust clothing that you will not mind getting paint on. We do offer paint overalls, although these do not guarantee no damage to clothing. We also require sensible sturdy footwear, avoiding heels and open toe footwear. Where personal protective equipment is required, it will be provided.
