Burley-in-Wharfedale Men's Shed

Space For Men to Enjoy in the Village Community

---

WHO WE ARE...
​Men’s Sheds are community spaces for men to connect, converse and create. Activities are often similar to those of garden sheds, such as woodworking & DIY but with activities for groups of men to enjoy together.

They help reduce loneliness and isolation, but most importantly, they’re fun, providing an opportunity for men in the local area to connect socially, make new friends, share and learn new skills, and gain knowledge.

We have wellbeing at the centre of what we try to do.

Simply drop by, enjoy a chat, tea or coffee, and in our case, some bacon butties!
