Postlip Open Days
Come and lend a hand and find out more about us and Cohousing
As ever and always, we love meeting new people who are interested in finding out more about cohousing and getting stuck into the Postlip way. That’s what our Lend a Hand days are all about. Come and spend the day with us to live the digging and dreaming at Postlip, and ask as many questions as you want. There's plenty of tea and cake — and plenty of variety!
