What it is i go to a place, it's like a massive camp/meeting and set in some woods and it's charity run with volunteers that run it as said all free.

It's a place to get people back out there like a Therapy and people with Mental Health problems, and we just do stuff ( mainly recycle stuff) like pallets =tables and chairs.

Craft work/grow stuff in the allotment plots and loads more as the allotment plots takes ages alone.

But when it's raining it gets cancelled a lot as they have 3 covers now going from tree to tree it's not that good so need one all in one size but it's a big area.

Online its £1000 or more for a big plastic cover around 30 metres big, I'm just trying to help them to see where to look for very cheap one/second hand that is still fine to use.

 

Thanks.

A waterproof tarpaulin might be the answer.

Ansio and Fucnen are two suppliers that I can think of that do 10m x 10m covers. They may do bigger sizes.

Yes that's it a tarpaulin but being a Government run thing they only have a budget each year which is pennies and there are loads of stuff to get to keep it running to name 2 like planting seeds/topsoil etc just to do with the gardening side, then there's craft work so material for that as well as wood work/recycling stuff so tools/screws and loads more.

They have to budget it so people can have things to do,the 4 people who run it does in free for 3 hours a  week.

Tarpaulin is around £1000 if not more for that size which is no chance at all as they would not get other stuff so then no group.

 

2nd hand HGV flatbed cover/tarpaulin? Would only be 50/60 ft though and heavy. Curtainsider curtains would be the same size. 

After a quick look. A 20m x 15m tarp on Amazon retailing at £110. 

Other direct suppliers might be able to do larger sizes upon request.

£1000 is not a lot of money.Surely this is achievable if you ask for contributions.

You could always set up a " go fund me "  page or something similar.

I think this is what they are trying to do,they have special days and things like that.

As ask for contribution, do that with a lot of other stuff and its also finding a place to approach like asda helps a lot.

Just thought i would ask to see if anyone knew a place like second hand ones or another option what to use.

As on the picture you can see the cover as they have to use 3 old ones,the was all overgrown 18 months ago,it was just slope with brambles.

Thanks.
