Resolution No.4 – Empower yourself
In today's modern society, women – just as much as men – are getting involved in "Doing It For Themselves." With some basic DIY knowledge you are no longer reliant on fly-by-night contractors, overpriced repairs, and shoddy workmanship.

Power tool manufacturers have taken note of the fact that women are getting involved in DIY, whether they are doing their own home repairs, improvements, or tackling creative projects. One of the world's leading power tool manufacturers, Bosch, have introduced a wide range of cordless tools that are lightweight and easy to use – with women in mind.

Empower yourself with the basics by attending one of our DIY Diva Power Tool and Basic Woodworking courses, and then move on up and start "Doing It For Yourself!"

You don't need any previous experience or knowledge to attend our courses. These courses are designed especially for women who don't know and want to learn.

You are taken step-by-step through each power tool, and the tools and techniques you need to use power tools in your own home.
