Why join the Skills Library?
The Braidwood community has always come together in tough times—through droughts, fires, floods, and pandemics. We’ve seen firsthand the power of generosity, with people sharing food, skills, advice, time, and support. These connections create a strong, resilient community that we can rely on when other systems fall short.
The Skills Library is here to nurture and strengthen that spirit by making it easier to share knowledge, trade skills, and learn from one another. It’s an investment in our community’s well-being—one that grows stronger with every person who joins.
Community, Creativity, Care.
