Reviews

A support worker and participant working side by side, proving that with the right tools, encouragement, and a willingness to think differently, meaningful participation is possible.

Support Worker

“In many programs, people are often limited to watching others do the work. We didn’t think it was possible for my client to be directly involved in creating timber products, but Christiaan saw a way. He developed a simple system that enabled genuine participation in the woodworking process, allowing my client to contribute to real products with pride and purpose. Watching that happen changed our expectations of what was possible.”

Priscilla – Founder, Woodcraft Adventures Tasmania

“Woodcraft Adventures and FNB Hobart has allowed me to build a successful craft business while still being there for my family. The flexibility has meant I can care for my children, work with my hands, and earn a meaningful income doing something I genuinely love. Creating our timber animals is my favourite part of the journey—each one has its own character and story. Seeing our products stocked through The Woodcraft Shop Richmond and reaching customers across Tasmania has been incredibly rewarding, proving that a lifelong passion for craft can grow into a thriving business.”
