Sounds too good to be true? Apparently not if you're one of the two projects selected to be part of 'Ty's Great British Adventure'. Ty Pennington is a US personality, famous for delivering an 'Extreme Makeover' show in the States. Now he's on the search for a British project that's seeking to transform a community space and has lost its way.

Using what seems to be a standard for these shows, there's only one week to complete the challenge and so the pressure will be on to get local communities and businesses to pull together and support the project.

Any sort of community space could be suitable for Ty's new project, whether it's a park, a pool, a broken building or a bare space. The producers are hoping to film in May this year, so if you think you've got the kind of project they're looking for, you can contact them at: This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
