Provision of a Men’s Shed for the people of Billingshurst.

Billingshurst Idea stage

This project is preparing for fundraising. Click Like to show your support, or Follow for updates on this project's journey.

The Men’s Shed is a community wellbeing project to provide a place for people who might otherwise struggle with loneliness or boredom. We want to build a permanent Shed, where we can meet, make and restore things, or just sit and talk. Currently we are meeting in the local scout hut, so are unable to make a mess, set up machinery, or store materials.

What we'll deliver:

  • A permanent Shed
  • Machinery and equipment
  • A space for conversation with fellow shedders, and the opportunity to learn new skills.

Why it's a great idea:

An opportunity to help the mental well-being of the local men (and women) by providing a welcoming space to meet up and chat. Also, the option to join in with making and repairing things, some of which can be sold to raise cash for the on-going expenses of the Shed.

Steps to get it done:
