We are an Alliance of Men’s Sheds across the Humber area. We are all individual charities, but we joined forces as an Alliance in November 2019 to support each other, share ideas and friendship, develop new projects and support emerging Sheds. We meet regularly either face to face (pre-Covid) or online to discuss all things ‘Shed’.

We manage and lead our own Sheds and engage in activities that interest us, such as woodwork, metalwork, photography, gardening. It is up to our members to decide how Sheds operate and develop. We make things for ourselves, for our Sheds, and for our communities. We get involved in community activities and support local groups in many ways. We are also well supported by organisations, groups and businesses.
