UK Men’s Shed of the Year 2017 Awarded
For the 2017 UK Men’s Shed of the Year award, we asked for nominations for Men’s Sheds who make inspiring contributions to their local communities. We got some great nominations, with all of them showing just what brilliant assets Sheds are to the communities that surround them, and the men that have one nearby to attend.
However, the submission from Dalbeattie Men’s Shed in Dumfries and Galloway blew us away. We recently paired them up with an organisation who want a trebuchet built as part of a Children in Need project, an opportunity that they’ve taken on with utmost enthusiasm. We know you’ll all join us in congratulating the amazing Dalbeattie Shedders for their well deserved award of Shed of the Year. Their prizes are on the way to them and include a wonderful, hand crafted celebratory gift from last year’s winners at Bourton on-the-Water Men in Sheds.
