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. Our Shed group offers this to local men where members share the tools and resources they need 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. 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 old donated bikes, some vintage, and convert to a street legal electric conversion which has a 40-50mile + range and an assisted speed of 15mph. We aim to convert 5 more. One being a trike and one a folding bike. These will be offered free to Shedders on loan, on their own risk, to aid health and well being and reduce social isolation. The kits cost around £450 to £550 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 fuelled power.
