Women in DIY

Jul 29, 2024

Salix Homes asked Emanuel Whittaker Site Manager, Katie Lockwood, and Multi-skilled Apprentice, Toni Kent, to attend a ‘Women in DIY’ event.

Whilst there, they helped the women master new skills and offered advice.

Working in collaboration with The Guinness Partnership, the training was delivered to female residents from both Guinness and Salix.

The training enabled 14 female participants over 18 years old and unemployed or on a low income, the opportunity to learn DIY and home maintenance skills, such as joinery, plumbing, plastering, tiling and more, as well as the chance to gain a Construction Skills Certification Scheme (CSCS) card.

Katie says that she cannot believe that 16 years ago she was in Toni’s shoes!

You have come a long way Katie, you should be very proud!
