Come learn how to sharpen your tools like a pro at our hands-on workshop! Join Transition Town Hastings as Learning to Grow 2025 kicks off with local horticulture expert, Sam Van Den Bogaerde, teaching us how to sharpen our loppers, spades and other garden tools.
As well as learning how to care for our tools, we’ll also be visiting an exciting new space that Hastings Borough Council has provided for Learning to Grow to use as a pop-up community “garden centre”.
Bring your own tools and gardening gloves. (If you don’t have either, just let us know when you book and we can provide.)
No experience necessary – we’ll be learning! Everyone welcome.
Free refreshments provided.
Places are limited, so booking is essential.

Using a creative approach, and a ukulele the facilitator will discuss motivational interviewing and various tools to use when having in-depth conversations. Motivational interviewing is an evidence-based approach to behavioural change. It focuses on ‘change talk’ to determine what stage an individual is at in The Stages of Change Model. Motivational interviewing is a collaborative and goal-oriented style of communication that is designed to strengthen personal motivation for and commitment to a specific goal by eliciting and exploring the person’s own reasons for change. Motivational interviewing is a guiding style of communication that focuses on empowering individuals to change by drawing out their importance and capacity for change. It focuses on an individual’s strengths rather than weaknesses and is not a way to confront or instruct an individual on how to go about a behavioural change. Participants will gain an understanding of this approach and learn various techniques to apply in their own practice or day-to-day life. This course applies to anyone with an interest in the subject
