Cambourne Shed
What are Sheds (or Men’s Sheds)
Sheds are community-based organisations typically established and operated by local volunteers.
They are spaces where men with ‘time on their hands’ come to meet and take part in fun, practical and social activities in friendly environment.
Sheds encourage people to come together to make, repair and repurpose, supporting projects in their local communities.
Sheds typically have three core features:
> A practical space where members can take part in activities such as woodwork, metalwork, furniture restoration, upcycling or gardening.
> A social space where members can relax, grab a cuppa and chat to others.
> An inclusive and friendly atmosphere where everyone is welcome and supported. Sheds often start off small with a few activities and build up their range overtime as their membership and skills base grow.
> Sheds enable members to work on both personal and group projects.
