Men’s Shed are looking to open new sheds

Posted on: February 16, 2023

Since the first Men’s Shed was successfully established in Essex in 2014, we’ve been working with organisations and volunteers across the county to establish many more and help combat the loneliness and isolation afflicting our communities.

But many of the existing Sheds in Essex are now over-subscribed, so we need help to identify premises or organisations that could accommodate more Shed groups for the benefit of their local community.

We work with local councils, voluntary organisations, charities and groups of private individuals to get Sheds off the ground, so if you are interested in having a Shed in your community please contact us and we’ll provide all the support and guidance needed to start a successful Community Shed Group.
