Carving out a community space...
Wood That Works
We are a community enterprise providing a creative space for people of all backgrounds and ages to learn a range of traditional carpentry skills.
Hidden within the Whittington Estate overlooking Highgate cemetery, our workshop is a peaceful, safe environment where we welcome all to come and enjoy the benefits of working with wood.
