We are so grateful to @TNLComFund for giving us grants. One, 3 years ago, enabled us to complete our shed build. The other, recently, has enabled us to purchase a Laser engraver/cutter to enable our members to learn new skills. All helping us to combat loneliness and isolation.

Two years ago today we opened officially. Two years of expanding our facilities, expanding our membership and of helping to combat loneliness. (We’re still moving things around in the sheds though!😀) Onwards and upwards for our third year in operation.

Thanks to a generous donation of materials from @mccarthyandstone we are building a covered walkway between our sheds. Should mean we (especially our wheelchair using members) can get from one shed to the other in the rain and keep dry!

It was all go at the shed last week. Bird tables being made, woodworking bench being made, chisels being sharpened. Good to see lots of activity so early in the year!

Just some of the items that our members have been making recently. Many will be available on our stall at the Friends of Fremantle Lake Park get together on 16th September. Come along and say hello and find out more about us.

On the 14th July 2022 the Mayor of Southampton officially opened Shirley Men’s Shed. That means that today we are officially one year old!

We would like to thank all of our members (old and new) for supporting us during our first year and making use of the facilities that we have worked so hard to provide. It really is great to see new friendships being formed and people enjoying some company, coffee and the odd joke or two with our membership numbers going up steadily.

A lot has happened in the year that we have been officially opened. We have acquired another, smaller shed which we are currently fitting out to use as additional working and storage space. We have reorganised our main shed to make best use of the space available. We have helped our local community by carrying out projects that we have been asked to undertake. We have expanded our membership and our opening hours.

We would like to thank all that have helped us during the year and those organisations that have given us grants to help us get established.

We continue to welcome new members and to enhance our facilities.

Onward and Upward!
