What We Do!!!
Our Men's Shed is basically a larger version of the typical man’s shed in the garden – a place where you can feel at home and pursue practical interests with a high degree of autonomy.
Members use tools and resources to work on projects of their own choosing, at their own pace and in a safe, friendly and inclusive environment. Our Shed is a place of skill-sharing and informal learning, of individual pursuits and community projects, of purpose, achievement and social interaction.
A place of leisure where men come together to work, play or just hang out with others. There’s no pressure to create anything or provide help, just do your own thing or join in, the choice is yours. You can play Botcha, Pool, Darts and cards. Learn new skills; bike maintenance, first aid, woodwork skills, CNC machining and 3D Printing.
Sheds offer something for everybody so please come along and see - it costs nothing and you'll be guaranteed a cuppa!

e-bike conversion kits:
We take donated bikes and convert to a street legal electric conversion which has about a 40 mile range and an assisted speed of 15mph. We have converted many bikes to date including tandems, trikes and folding bikes.
We have a collection of electric bikes which are offered free to Shedders on loan, (on their own risk), to aid health and well being and reduce social isolation.
The kits cost around £550 to £650 plus ancillaries to make the donor bike serviceable.
We hope to also build a solar charging station to charge these bikes so it doesn’t cost or use carbon fueled power.
