It has developped an ESC hosting project together with 2 social and solidarity organisations in Bretteville (a leisure association and a resource center) to develop missions around youth, sustainable development and culture : the resource center renovates, valorises and sells second-hand products, the leisure association offers sport, handwork and artistic activities for kids using as much as possible second-hand materials, and the twinning organizes intercultural events. Your will get involved in all those activites : valorisation and solidarity sale of second-hand products, organisation of artistics and sports workshops, coordination of families and youth exchanges with the twinning commitee.
