Tonight was our first time visiting Frere Road Community Centre. After a 5km run or walk to the venue we met Claire who had all the tools ready.
The main task was covering the outside wall in 'Brilliant White' paint! It had already been prepared for us - thank you - with weeds cleared and paint dusted, so we could get stuck in straight away.
In an hour the 5 of us covered approx 10m, with rollers, ladders and brushes, making sure the bricks were covered evenly. Eloise also managed to cut back a tall bush at the front if the building to reveal a lovely canary murial.
The transformation was brilliant indeed! We hope to return for more painting very soon - there is plenty more to do.
