Kettle On For Men In Shed’s Open Evening
Since starting up just over a year ago, the Leighton Buzzard & District Men’s Shed has rapidly grown into one of the area’s key wellbeing and social resources. Today, the Shed offers workshop facilities and a community space where local residents can come together to work on their own projects, share skills, get involved in a range of community projects and activities or just drop in for a cuppa and a chat.
Now, to grow its membership further the Shed will be holding an Open Evening from 7:00–9:00pm on Tuesday 13 January 2026 in the Community Room next to the Narrow Gauge Railway station in Pages Park. All are welcome so do come along and meet the team and find out more about what the Shed has to offer – the kettle’s on!
