Who are we?

Who we are

Woodcraft Manningham is a group of interested woodworkers, both male and female,  who will show you how to do it.
We are a hands-on club, with a large well equipped workshop.
We do not offer formal lessons, but members will help you with different aspects of doing your project. 
In turn, one day, you will help others learn. This is how we keep our fees so low.
