A Home Making A Difference
For many a home is a haven, a place to call your own, a place to feel comfortable and at ease in. This is what the project ‘Realising for the Read Triplets’ is all about; creating a space perfect for three children, Anwen, Mahalah and Gideon. Many locals would know the inspiring story of the 10 year old Read Triplets who were born with Merosin Deficient Muscular Dystrophy and are wheelchair bound. The community of Canowindra has once again rallied behind the children, helping the family build a unique and purpose-built home for the triplets long term special needs. Work is well and truly underway at the Reads place on the outskirts of Canowindra, with the unusual ‘Hempcrete’ walls
currently being built. Theirs will be only the second ‘Hemp home’ in the Central West, built by Belubula Hemp Homes, and designed by Envirotecture, in Sydney. Jemimah and Ben decided to use Industrial Hemp as a building material as it is naturally fire resistant, pest resistant, breathable, highly insulated, environmentally friendly, and a low maintenance wall product. “Building with Hempcrete allows the air quality and warmth in our home to be excellent, with our children only having about 40% lung capacity, this will be really good,” said Jemimah.
