La Giraudiere Volunteers Project

La Giraudiere is more than just a website it is a place, an old French charentaise masters house or maison d'maitre which fell into dis-repair after being neglected for 50 years or more. Now it is being renovated, restored and converted into a hamlet, a place of international learning, a place being brought back to life and at the same time adding to the lives of those who help make it happen.
