AT GALGAEL, WE HAVE CREATED A CULTURAL ANCHOR POINT AROUND WHICH LOCAL PEOPLE ARE RE-KINDLING SKILLS, COMMUNITY AND A SENSE OF PURPOSE.
GalGael provides learning experiences anchored in practical activities that offer purpose and meaning.
We provide a space that serves as something of a safe harbour for those whose lives have been battered by storms such as worklessness, depression or addiction.
We offer a workplace that challenges, inspires and creates the conditions conducive to learning; a space where mistakes are not only made but owned as our best teachers, where issues are left at the door and new identities forged.
