As part of the Renov8 project, my repair stand was based in the Village Green, along with The Green Runners, The Re-action Collective, Pair-Ups and Pre-loved Sports.

The Green was packed all day and hosted some amazing and inspirational speakers such as Jasmin Paris and Nicky Spinks. What a weekend!
