Norwich Men's Shed - Open Day
About this Event
Norwich Men’s Shed - a place for men to connect, converse and create
Share your skills and learn new things in a friendly and sociable community workshop
We offer a skills sharing workshop environment for men of all ages and abilities. Shed members work on their own projects, volunteer their time to undertake public commissions and engage in community based projects. Some members also mentor/tutor fellow members and community groups.
Norwich Men’s Shed membership is open to any man (aged 18+) who is interested in accessing a workshop environment. Members span the novice, the diy-er, the keen hobbyist and the retired professional – all abilities and skillsets are welcome.
Norwich Men’s Shed offers a community workshop space for men to socialise and learn new skills, addressing key issues around wellbeing, social isolation and loneliness. We are a skills-sharing cooperative and activities on offer will vary depending on current membership. Our current activities are mainly woodworking and woodturning. Some activities are included within the membership fee, whilst others may incur an additional charge.
Men’s Sheds offer community spaces for men to connect, converse and create. “Shedding” is a grassroots movement; each Shed is set up by and for their community and operates independently with differing offers and activities according to local need.
The Shed Movement originated in Australia as a way to improve the health and wellbeing of men – a popular concept, Men’s Sheds have since grown to become a global programme. There are currently over 580 sheds in the UK with many more in development – as one of the first six established UK sheds, Norwich Men’s Shed is considered a founding shed.
