Volunteer for Construct during a weekend in June



Construct will host a Designer Showcase, themed "Nature in the Berkshire" at historic Cassilis Farm in New Marlborough during June 2024. It is a fundraiser for the affordable housing initiative now in process at this newly acquired magnificent estate.

Let's put together a group of volunteers to cover a shift on June 21 - click on button below

Information about the Designer Showcase will be updated on Construct's dedicated website (click here).

Note that the house has two stories and no elevator.
