Join Alfie & Nick and help juice fruit we 've either picked or collected around Brighton/Sus sex. This fruit would have gone to waste but with your help it will be turned into delicious juices and ciders. Learn hands on about small scale juice and cider production\, some of which we'll sell o n the day to the passing public.
\n \nNo ex perience is necessary\, and new volunteers very we lcome. Our juicing sessions are fun\, messy and fa st paced\, as we need to make sure the fruit is pr essed before it spoils. Please note this is a very physical activity\, with some heavy lifting (arou nd 15kg) of crates and stretching\, as top of equi pment is 1.6m.
\n \nIMPORTANT: Please do not register to take part if you ar e ill or have had any sickness or diarrhoea in the previous 14 days.
\n \nWasp season in the UK generally starts around April and finishes arou nd mid October. We therefore advise that anyone wi th an allergy to wasp stings does not help out dur ing this period.
\n \nUnfortunately\, due t o the fast pace of these sessions and the size and nature of some of the equipment involved\, this s ession is not suitable for under 16’s. We're keen to buy more suitable equipment to run family-frien dly juicing sessions - so please contact us with a ny funding opportunities you think we could apply for.
\n \nPlease register for this task\, so we know who is coming and only register if you are sure you can come.
