Work
The type of work to expect during the workcamp is mainly focused on sustainability and decarbonizationof the sessions in project, in addition to directly benefiting Can Xammar and the volunteers who participate in it, we will also have a very positive impact on the community of Ametlla del Vallés. The type of work will MAINLY be in the study theme but at the same time there will be some physical activities related to the restoring and maintenance of the house Can Xammar. Accomodation and food
The accomodation will be in tents, but if the weather changes drastically we will try to manage the accomodation to be indoors in a shared space inside the house of Can Xammar. The house hosts groups of children in open activities and recreational and study activities for youngsters so if there are not many groups of them staying we could manage to change the accomodation indoors.
