In the charity's own words
Yate Men's Shed provides a community space for men to connect, converse and create. We hold two practical sessions at Yate Parish Hall two afternoons a week. Offering extensive workshop facilities for groups of men to enjoy together, including just drinking tea and chatting. The sessions help reduce loneliness and isolation, but most importantly, they are fun.
