About this Event
The School of Sustainable Building in Manchester introduces a five-day, hands-on Tiny House short course, where participants construct a small-scale “tiny house” while learning essential skills of modern, low-carbon construction. Under expert guidance in a fully equipped indoor workshop, participants tackle:
- Timber framing
- Insulation and airtightness
- Cladding, roofing, and window detailing
The course is tailored to complete beginners - no prior building experience required - and places are strictly limited to 12 participants to maintain an intimate, supportive learning environment.
The schedule includes lunch and all materials provided.
It’s ideal for anyone curious about sustainable hands-on building, practical skills, or Tiny House design.
PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS A 5-DAY COURSE: MONDAY 20TH TO FRIDAY 24TH (9.30AM-4PM)

Please note: During the course we will be building a scaled-down tiny house — effectively a dog kennel. This smaller size makes it possible to complete in five days and avoids unnecessary waste, while still using the same components, techniques, and details as a real house. At the end of the workshop, the kennel will be donated to a local dog charity.
