Welcome to Whitchurch Men in Sheds
Whitchurch Men in Sheds (Shropshire) is Registered Charity Number 1179267 (Click for Charity Details)
Have you heard the term "Shed" and wondered what it's all about? It's not just about garden tools! A "Men's Shed" is a community space where men (and sometimes women, too) come together to work on projects, make friends, and share skills. It's a place to get out of the house, learn new things, and make a difference in your community. For more details see the links at the bottom of this page.
This Website is in the process of getting updated. The old site can still be seen at old.whitchurchmeninsheds.uk
The Shed is open 10 to 4 Wednesdays and Thursdays at back of Watergate Centre off Castle Street SY13 1DW see Google Maps LINK
What We Do
The Whitchurch Men in Sheds is a friendly bunch with a variety of interests. We enjoy:
- Community Projects: e.g. Bird Boxes for Wildlife Trust, Church Notice Boards, Flight Simulator Cockpit, Various Repairs, Benches - See FB
- Woodwork: Build furniture, toys, or whatever you can dream up.
- Computers: Get tech help, learn new software, or mess around with electronics.
- Art & Crafts: Express yourself with painting, drawing, or other crafts.
- 3D Design and Printing: Bring your ideas to life with our 3D printer.
- And More! We're always open to new activities suggested by members.
But it's not just about the projects – it's about the friendships, laughter, and having a place to belong.
