In the charity's own words
The Shed Wymondham is a place to pursue practical interests at leisure to practice skills and enjoy making and mending The difference from a garden shed is that their activities are often solitary in nature while The Shed is the opposite. Its about social connections and friendship building, sharing skills and knowledge and of course a lot of laughter
