Webbing; Picture by Matt Care

It’s that time of year again. Now that the barge is back in Faversham for the winter we have a need again for pairs of hands to do a bit of painting. Please if you have an hour or so free on any weekends through the winter, join our happy crew and come down to help get the barge ready for the next season. You can contact us via the email address (CambriaTrustSecretary@live.co.uk) or, if you’re in the area, come down to Standard Quay and hail somebody aboard (“Oy! Cambria!” generally works!). There’s generally a small group of happy chatty folk at it and some breaks for tea and cake. This can be ruffty-tuffty painting, outdoors in the cold wind, or it can be more like house decorating down below decks gliding a nice coat of gloss onto a galley wall. For a week or so we will also be in the dry dock so there will be a chance of some barnacle scraping and anti-foul slapping down below on the flat bottom, if you’re feeling more extreme, but nobody will insist you do anything you are not comfortable with. We can also cope with sessions outside of the weekend under some circumstances. Give it a go! The Cambria thrives on Volunteer help and you would know that you had been there and done that!
