What is it?

• Men’s Sheds are community spaces for men to connect, converse and create. The activities are often similar to those of garden sheds, but for groups of men to enjoy together. They help reduce loneliness and isolation, and they’re fun.

Who is it for?

• Men, but some also welcome women.

What do they offer?

• At the time of writing, there are Men’s Sheds operating in Midlothian: Penicuik, Mayfield and Roslin.

How can people access it?

• Go to https://scottishmsa.org.uk/find-a-shed, enter the person’s postcode, and details come up on a map. Click on specific sheds to get contact details.
