CHARITY COMMISSION FOR ENGLAND AND WALES
Annual Report for the period From: 1/03/22 Period start date To: 28/2/23 Period end date
Charity name: Kingsbridge & District Mens Shed
Charity registered number: 1186277
Objectives and Activities
Our Men’s Shed is a community space for men and women to connect, converse and create. The activities are often similar to those of garden sheds, but for groups of mostly men to enjoy together. It helps reduce loneliness and isolation, but most importantly, it’s fun.
Our Shed is run by the men that use it in a bottom-up approach. This model brings about stronger feelings of fulfilment and achievement in the men that develop it, and leads to better sustainability as we didn’t start with a large cash injection.
Established in 2016 premises were not obtained until with the help of a local benefactor a purpose built shed was made available. This occurred in 2019 when the Charity was registered with the Charity Commission.
Fitting out the Shed started in continued in 2023
We have acquired new members from all over our district, who come by bike, train and car and are very enthusiastically building projects and renovating
We have continued our work for the local community while continuing with the fitting out and acquisition of equipment.
We have carried out work for Theatres, our local hospital and other charitable groups.
Kingsbridge Mens Shed is registered with three local general practices and the local District Council’s Mobility and Support department
The Shed is open two afternoons a week and as numbers wishing to attend increase more openings will occur providing we can appoint suitable session leaders.
We receive some income from manufacturing and refurbishing various items, from subscriptions and continue to explore other sources of income.
2023 should see the Shed consolidating its achievements and expanding its activities as the facilities it offers become better known.
