Visiting the Parliament Shed

I enjoyed stopping by the Parliament Shed recently to hear more about the fantastic health, wellbeing and social benefits of community-run Men’s Sheds.

Locally in Esher and Walton, we have three sheds up and running:

  • Henrietta Parker Trust Community Workshop
  • Thames Ditton Men in Sheds
  • Princess Alice Hospice Man Shed

It has been great to support our local sheds, having been to meet the teams at both Princess Alice Hospice and Thames Ditton. Currently, we’re campaigning for Thames Ditton Men in Sheds to stay at Thames Ditton Centre for the community after Elmbridge Borough Council handed over the management. You can find out more about our campaign here.

Thank you to the team at the Parliament Shed for taking the time to chat with me.
