SERVICE DETAILS
A group of elders and members from Liberton Kirk have formed a team to carry out small jobs initially around the Church and Halls.
We also extend this service to others in our community.
This is made up of mostly retired people with skills in various areas.
We also have a gardening team looking after our gardens around the halls with our own fruit and vegetable beds providing fresh produce to our cafe.
Another recent addition is our IT help group who can help with computer related issues.
Can we help you?
With all this expertise available we hope that we can help you with something.
Call us:
We are currenly very busy so are not able to take on any new jobs.
If, in reading this, you feel that we could be of help to you please contact us through the church office on 0131-664-8264 and leave your name and contact number so that one of our team can get in touch.
Our help is FREE...
We do not charge for our services but are often asked if we could accept a donation for something. If, after we have visited you to assist with some work, you would like to make a donation, can we suggest a donation to the Kirkgate Trust.
Joining the Artisans...
Perhaps you might like to join our team. If you would and have some skills to share we would love to have you join us. You do not need to be a member of a local church, just have a desire to serve the wider community. The Artisans meet for coffee on the first Saturday morning of each month. Contact Derek Jardine, Mob: 07913265912 for more details should you like to join us. All Artisans must be registered with the Protection of Vulnerable Groups (PVG).
Starting an Artisan group in your church...
You may want to start a group in your church. If this is the case we would be happy to come along and explain more about what we do, popular types of requests and some tips on how to deal with them. You don’t need to be highly skilled to help people as many requests are for very simple things. You really can make a huge difference and feel good about yourself while meeting new friends at the same time.
