The Ystrad WOOD STORE provides opportunities for volunteers and community groups to work on their craft skills. A major recycling project, the Wood Store takes in wooden items and timber that would otherwise go to landfill, and uses these as the raw materials. Other wood goes to produce kindling, which is sold at a competitive price. If you wish to contact the Wood Store, it is currently best to drop in or call between the hours of 10 am and 1pm.
