Are you looking for a place to pursue practical interests, share skills, and enjoy some good company? Look no further than Men’s Sheds! These unique spaces offer a welcoming environment where individuals can come together to work on projects, learn new skills, and build lasting friendships. Whether it’s woodworking, metalworking, electronics, or even car building, there’s something for everyone. Unlike the solitary nature of traditional garden sheds, Men’s Sheds are fantastic for fostering social connectedness.
On Thursday 12th June, at the Lime Tree in Matlock, we will be hosting our next Social Connectedness Event.
Organised by our Social Connectedness Development Worker Amanda Dolan, this will be a Community Group Marketplace for groups in the Derbyshire Dales, but particularly aimed at Matlock and surrounding area.
