Painting Refresh of Workshop for disabled adults
UPMO
Description
We are UPMO, a charity that provides support and opportunities for adults with learning disabilities and autism. Our vision is an inclusive society where these individuals can thrive.
Every week, we encourage our students to build confidence, use imagination, and develop life skills through music, drama, art, IT and digital, and other expressive and physical activities.
The Ask:
Our Midlothian service, where we deliver our workshops and support, is based within ‘The Hive’ community provision in Gorebridge, and it needs some TLC! The Hive Centre is a converted Police Station.
The workshop room and office need painting and a general refresh. As you can see, we attached items to the walls, and when taking them down, this removed the paint. We are thinking that boards hung there will prevent this from recurring, but allow students to have visuals/artworks on the walls, which is really important to them.
We are unsure if wall panelling kits would work for this; we are open to suggestions!
- The walls are 12.5 feet x 8 feet (2 walls), and 13 feet x 8 feet (1 wall)
