Current opening times at the new workshop are Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday from 10.00am to 3.00pm

Gainsborough Men's Shed have been supported by funding from the Shine Innovation Fund to help them set up the new workshop premises with woodworking equipment, PPE, wood and training.

This is good for wellbeing because

  • It promotes good health and wellbeing to its members through active participation and, from time to time, providing opportunities for relevant health organisations to raise awareness of good health strategies for the benefit of the Shed.
  • It promotes social inclusion for public benefit through the provision of a facility particularly for, but not exclusively for, men at risk of being socially excluded.
  • It prevents social exclusion by promoting the opportunity for friendships, social engagement and skill sharing in a safe and enjoyable environment.

This is a friendly, non-judgmental group of guys and I was made to feel very welcome when I joined.
