It has been TEECH's busiest year, with two extra trips to take aid in support of Ukrainian people currently residing in Moldova.

Storage and parking

TEECH are on the move…………
Disappointingly BT have given TEECH the boot from our current storage and parking in Colchester, Essex. Volunteers will be working hard in the new year to find alternative arrangements, plus sort and pack everything we currently have so it can be moved. Hopefully we’ll see local volunteers in the new year to help with this mammoth task, to get organised and get out of the site. If you know of any storage (or can spread the word) in the North Essex area, then get in touch. Ideally TEECH need free storage otherwise the pressure is increased to raise more funds.
