September 18, 2017
Donnie Macleod and a team of local tradesmen attempt to renovate the community-run Lewis Retirement Centre in Stornoway in five days. With the local workforce giving their time and all of the building materials to this charitable project free of charge, the pressure is on to complete the work on time. Each week, over 1,500 islanders use the centre as a meeting place and recreational space but it's badly in need of updating and more space is required to satisfy the needs of the community organisations. In this programme, under the watchful eye of site manager John Campbell, they get to work. The roof is stripped back to the rafters, walls are knocked through, the old electrical cables are ripped out but the drains running through the back of the centre are a cause for concern and could even jeopardise the work.
