to create something with their own hands

“There were so many people buzzing…”

Our Get HandsOn Days with teams, friends and colleagues.
You’ll find lots of examples on this website of the projects we’ve built across the UK over the last few years, but here is a compendium​ (wow that’s a fancy word) of the types of projects we create:

Whether you are looking for us to come and build you something special or you are wanting to get involved in one of our community projects as part of a team…

Projects for communities

All over the UK.

We are primarily based down in glorious ​Devon​​ but our work takes us all over the UK, building projects in schools, charities, public areas and more.

Purpose-driven design

From ideas to reality.

We design our spaces to be functional, ergonomic and cater for user’s specific needs.

Our clients.

We work with clients from a wide range of industries, but they all have one thing in common… They are committed to supporting Get HandsOn projects that benefit their local community and people.

Crowe UK LLP asked the Get HandsOn team to help us work on our community project at Glamis Adventure Playground in East London. It was an amazing day and the entire Crowe team felt supported and inspired by the work we undertook. Much of this was down to the planning and communication of the Get HandsOn team, from start to finish we were impressed by their passion and technical and creative skills. These people know what they are doing, and I have no hesitation in recommending them to other firms looking for expert advice to help co-ordinate their ESG efforts in the community. We will certainly be working with them again in 2023.

The team from Get HandsOn have just finished a project at Kates Hill Primary School in the West Midlands where they built an outdoor classroom and stage. Throughout the week they were with us the team acted professionally and could not do enough for us. We were kept involved throughout the whole process, from planning all through the build until completion. The site was kept safe and tidy at all times, all work was carried out as per the schedule and the quality of materials and work carried out was exceptional and to the highest of standards. No corners were cut and the team went above and beyond what was expected of them, listening to all of our requests and observations . The finished build is truly extraordinary and is going to change our outdoor learning area beyond all recognition. Thank you so much for everything you did for us.
