Looking to try something new? Why not join Westbury Shed

IT’S full steam ahead for the Westbury Shed project which is holding its first meeting of the year tomorrow, Friday 15th January.

“The shed is a place where men can share tools, advice, and materials to work on projects of their choosing,” says its chairman Dan Gmaj. “And 2016 promises to be a great year!

“The interest in our community project keeps on coming and I have met some amazing, inspirational people in the short time it has been in existence.

“Our next meeting on Friday 15th of January is open to all and will be a casual discussion and a  ‘Meet the Shedders’ session.  We are in the process of producing some promotional media to explain how the Shed works and to help spread the word too. I am also forging useful links with some other local shed groups and community support organisations.

“If this is striking a chord with you, even if you are thinking that it may suit someone you know, then please come and check out the Westbury Shed in 2016.  With a name and e-mail address we can keep you up to date with all that we are planning and the decision to get more involved always remains with you. Please email westburyshed @gmail.com

“Pressure and expectation have no place in the Shed. It’s all about people and how to have fun, which makes all of our days just a little brighter.

“I hope to see you at the Leigh Park Community Centre on Friday January 15th, 10am-1pm. This arrangement will provisionally continue on the third Friday of each month.

“The Shed will offer a small escape from monotonous routine and will provide the environment to help re-inject some motivation and thus, hopefully, a little magic into your week while you work on a project or just talk to others.”
