In the garden of Didier Gaston, president of the O'rizons association, the muddy ground is marked with wheel tracks.
“The truck caused damage,” remarks Élise Zambeaux, communications manager, with a laugh.
The vehicle is parked in a corner, and around it, tools and boards are strewn on the ground.
This is the future third place of O'rizons.
“Before, we rented rooms from the municipality,” explains Élise.
But we missed having our own place.
» Buy premises?
Out of budget, so the association decides to change its plans.
“And why not a truck?
It is convenient for storing equipment.
Then we said to ourselves that we could go more easily to meet people,” she says.
Until now, O'rizons organized its workshops in municipal halls.
Repair cafés, administrative support sessions, intergenerational workshops... All of these will now take place within the confines of the truck, the "mobile O'rizons", which can travel throughout the department.
