Now the weather is improving, take advantage of the
NSBRC workshops to get a headstart on your self-build projectsI
t’s summer and the old adage applies
fully to anyone undertaking a homebuilding
project. The days are longer, your site
will be drier, and this should be the time
to really make progress on your self-build
adventure.
Activities at The National Self Build &
Renovation Centre (NSBRC) certainly ramp
up during the summer and a range of courses,
workshops and educational days are on offer to
help you along the way.
The NSBRC is the UK’s only self-build visitor
centre and is open Tuesday to Sunday (10:- 17:30) every week. Their aim is to inspire,
educate and provide impartial advice as well as
showcasing the latest products and technologies
from over 250 exhibitors.
The Helpdesk is staffed Wednesday to Sunday
and free, guided, educational tours at midday,
Friday to Sunday, each week are provided. On
Friday and Sundays it’s the Renovation House
Tour and on Saturdays it’s the New Build Tour.
The one day courses on offer at NSBRC are just
£165 (Inc VAT) and include full refreshments
and a comprehensive course pack.
The NSBRC is a must visit destination
for anyone undertaking a homebuilding project
of any size and is located on J16,
M4 (Swindon), SN5 8UB. Entry to the NSBRC is
free and there is free parking on site.
