Screw Sorting Therapy Pilot Aims to Expand with Large Autism Charity Discussions

Following Cabinz and Woodwork to Wellness' pilot  project (see link below)

Idea for sorting a mixed bucket of screws into smaller pots as relaxation & therapy that can then be used for craft / DIY by community groups 

On 14/11/18 Paul Ridley from Cabinz met with Terry Usher from Autism Together and Tony from Woodwork to Wellness (WTW) 

 Autism Together is a large 50 year old charity based in the Wirral and the North West UK

Methodology for sorting, and efforts to bring the screws to market were discussed, at a meeting in the Woodwork to Wellness site with Tony and helpful visiting (WTW) members.

  Terry has taken approx. 60 kg of assorted screws (pics below) , bolts & fittings back to Autism Together to trial the best way of sorting and selling the screws. 

If you are a Community group, small business, local builder or diy'er, looking for larger quantities of screws & fittings to use or donate / sell on . Please contact Cabinz via email at cabinznet@gmail.com

We hope to be delivering after xmas.



Edit:  In December Cabinz visited  Autism Togethers' Screw sorting work station & garden furniture manufacturing area . Ta for tour Terry.

Cabinz dropped off some more screws for sorting














More fixing dropped off !

We've had a flood of water that has leaked and damaged some of the hardware, electronic collectables and clothes we sell to raise funds for our project

   We will let them dry out and then inspect them to see what can be salvaged
