Shedders and Fixers was created in 2017 by a man and a woman who wanted to set up a space that replicated the style and ethos of the Mens Shed Association format. It started in a humble polytunnel on site of the Secret Garden Touring Park leased on a peppercorn rent by landowners Neil and Lesley Pollington. Neil and Lesley wanted a group that would benefit the local community and be sustainable for the future.
Since these humble beginnings, many different members have all contributed along the way to build the space that we have today. Installation of sheds, concrete flooring and workspaces has created a unique environment that enables our members to build, repair and create items either for themselves, for the local community or in collaboration with local charities.
We continue to be very grateful to all those people who have contributed along the way as well as all the people and our members who continue to volunteer their time now.
