Men’s Sheds (or Sheds) are similar to garden sheds – a place to pursue practical interests at leisure, to practice skills and enjoy making and mending. The difference is that garden sheds and their activities are often solitary in nature while Men’s Sheds are the opposite. They’re about social connections and friendship building, sharing skills and knowledge, and of course a lot of laughter.

Why not come along and see what’s happening at the Cowes Men's Shed? Fix something, build something, invent something, share your skills with like minded men with an interest in drinking tea.

Arrive when you like, leave when you like, no commitment.

This may just be what you have always needed, don’t be bored at home and if you have nowhere to practice your carpentry or gardening skills – this is for you!

What are you waiting for? And if you don't want to come along on your own the first time, bring a friend with you too.

The Cowes Men's Shed is a Storeroom2010 Community Project
