Come and enjoy the warm welcome of the inhabitants of a small town at the seaside!
The town council of Plouguerneau welcomes you for its first international workcamp where you will help to restore its built heritage, in the heart of its countryside. An opportunity to experience the local culture and to make unforgettable inter-generational encounters.
Beyond the reconstruction, you will discover the history of the town!
The work will focus on the restoration of a washhouse, using traditional masonry techniques. Throughout the whole camp, you will be accompanied by a technical leader teaching you the masonry techniques.
You will sleep in tents (please bring your sleeping mat and a warm sleeping bag) near the sports field. The group activities and meals will take place in a room made available to the group, with access to showers and toilets. Wifi is available at the town hall and washing machines are availableThe group will be sharing the cleaning chores and preparing meals together. The budget will be allocated to the camp leaders and you will participate in the shopping and the preparation of meals with products from the market and local producers (if possible).
Plouguerneau (around 6500 inhabitants) is located in the county of “Finistere” and in the region Brittany, which is a land with strong local history and traditions, regional languages yet always open to the world, thanks to its hundreds of kilometers of sea and Ocean shores. The region is also blessed with gentle weather thanks to the ocean breeze - making the nature very lumptious-, and its various landscapes and sea shores makes it a touristic destination. There are several hiking trails around the town. You will be able to go on a trip to the sea or to do leisure activities in the town of Brest (around 140 000 inhabitants), only 25 km from Plouguerneau. You will also be able to share convivial moments with the inhabitants and the young people of the town.
Plouguerneau is a small rural town of about 6500 inhabitants located on the Brittany coast, one of the most western points of France. It is a charming village, with a few lighthouses near the sea. This first workcamp allows Plougerneau to restore and enhance its local heritage. The inhabitants are delighted to see people from all countries coming to help reconstruct their history.
Foreigners belonging to the European Union must bring with them a personal EHIC (European Health Insurance Card), and everybody must, in any case, bring their insurance certificate. If health issues happen on the project, volunteers will have to pay for it, and will then be reimbursed once back in their home country.
You have to bring warm clothes (trousers, sweater, socks, closed shoes, rain clothes) and light ones (skirts or shorts, t-shirts, open shoes) because the weather can change very suddenly in Brittany. You can literally experience all four seasons in one day! Please also take with you working clothes, gloves and shoes in addition to your swimsuit, sunglasses and sunscreen. Bring a warm sleeping bag and an insulated camping mat as nights are sometimes fresh and wet.
