🏢 About the local organisation
Beauvoisin, a small town between Nimes, Montpellier and the Mediterranean with rich traditions and wine culture has a long history of international projects. The seat of our delegation has been there for over 40 years. In collaboration with the town, the workcamp of this year focusses on restoration work in the city and the nearby hamlet of Franquevaux as well as a support for local festivities in this very animated time of year. The workcamp is therefore part of a dynamic and will to share the life of the town and strengthen the link between the city center and its hamlet.
💼 What the programme involves
The work done by the volunteer group include the restoration of walls (skinning and jointing the walls of the old scale in Beauvoisin ) and small constructions (barriers of the playground in Franquevaux). A logistical help for the organization of local events, as the cultural festival "Nuits de Franquevaux", a concert in the arena of Beauvoisin or the summer festival of Franquevaux, is also planned and will allow you to share lots of moments with the locals.
🏠 Accommodation on site
At the school in Franquevaux or in a hosting center in Beauvoisin. Facilities and other spaces for collective life (cooking, meals…) are available in the same building, accommodation will be inside (on camp beds) and/or in tents.
📍 About the location
Through the work, but also thanks to the contact with the local population, participants will have many opportunities to discover local life in this festive period. The region offers a rich variety of outdoor leisure activities: hiking (in the vineyards and the typical nature of Camargue), swimming in the Mediterranean, exploring the historic city of Nimes, and so many other things to discover!
