Mens Shed Lincolnshire

Introduction:

UK Men’s Shed Association (UKMSA) are looking for organisations who are interested in setting up Men’s Sheds in Lincolnshire.

Men’s Sheds encourage people to come together to make, repair and repurpose, supporting projects in their local communities.

Sheds improve wellbeing, reduce loneliness and combat social isolation.

Although the concept of Men’s Sheds started predominantly to support the health and wellbeing of older men, many Sheds have a mixed membership and cater for all ages.

• Have you got service users who would enjoy attending?
• Do you have an interest in reducing isolation and improving wellbeing?
