The Little Shed

We have turned our old office space in to a modern multiuse community hub called The Little Shed.

In August 2019 we joined forces with the Black Sheep youth project (part of ARC Training Company) to refurbish the space on Dunraven Street in Tonypandy and we proudly launched this vital space in October 2022!

The Black Sheep project supports young people to learn skills for work in construction. They’ve put their learning to good use in the Little Shed though renovation and creating a beautiful wooden feature wall as well as talking with designers on how the space should look. Thirty young people from Maes Gwyn and Ferndale Community School have worked on the Little Shed and these amazing young people have all completed Level 1 in Health and Safety in construction, Level 1 in Asbestos Awareness and Level 2 in Manual Handling.

The Little Shed is home to our food parcel project Grub Hub, our community fridge project, hosts Repair Cafe Wales, Digital Fridays and our health and wellbeing programme – Be Active RCT.

Local contractors and suppliers kindly supported our venture through our Community Benefits programme (‘Giving Back‘) and we would like to thank:  Vision Products, Property Building Maintenance Wales Ltd, Flair Electrical Engineering LtdBright Collie, Greenstream Flooring, IVC Flooring,  Ministry of Furniture and Arts Factory team.
