🍛 SUNDAY NIGHT SHED SESSION – CHANGE OF PLANS! 🍛

Just a wee reminder that there will be no Bishopbriggs Men’s Shed session at the Scout Hall this Sunday, 1st November.

Instead, the shedders are swapping the tea and biscuits for a curry and heading out for a wee social night together! 🍛🍻

It's not all about making and fixing things at the Shed – it's about friendship, good company and having a laugh too!

We'll be back to our usual Sunday evening session next week.

We are all looking forward to our curry ! 😄

🌿🌼 Making Bishopbriggs Better Together! 🌼🌿

Fantastic to see the BetterBriggs volunteers out making a real difference in our town centre! 👏

A great team effort clearing, tidying and refreshing the flower beds, bringing some much-needed colour and care to the heart of Bishopbriggs. 🌷🌱

At Bishopbriggs Men's Shed, we're delighted to support fellow community groups who are getting stuck in and making positive changes to our hometown.

💚 A little time, a bit of teamwork and a willingness to get involved can make a huge difference!

If you'd like to help make Bishopbriggs a cleaner, greener and more welcoming place, why not get involved with BetterBriggs? Every helping hand counts!

👏 Well done to everyone involved — this is what community spirit is all about!

💚 World Mental Health Day | 10 October 💚

A friendly chat, a shared cuppa and feeling part of a community can make a real difference. At Bishopbriggs Men’s Shed, we’re building friendships and camaraderie while getting involved in all sorts of activities and community projects.

We meet every Sunday evening at the Scout Hall. Doors open at 6:45 pm — come along, meet the group and find out what’s happening. We also hold regular sessions at our workshop at Huntershill.

There’s no need to know anyone or have a particular skill. Just come as you are — you’ll be made welcome.

🌍 A GREAT NIGHT OF CONVERSATION AT BISHOPBRIGGS MEN’S SHED
Thanks to everyone who joined us tonight for our screening of The People’s Emergency Briefing, organised in partnership with Climate Café Bishopbriggs.

We found the documentary really thought-provoking. Afterwards we split into smaller groups to discuss some of the issues raised and consider what actions we can all take locally, alongside the need for action at a wider government and strategic level.

🤟 We were delighted to have BSL interpreter support available for our Deaf Men’s Shed members. When we open events like this to the wider public, we’d love to see more people from the local Deaf community coming along and benefiting from this support too.

It was also great to welcome Julie and Penny from Better Briggs, who came along to support the evening and represent another of our local community groups. 💚

A big thank you to Mark, our BSL interpreter, for his continued support, and to Frank from Climate Café Bishopbriggs for organising the screening and facilitating the discussions.

👏 Thanks to everyone who came along, got involved and contributed to a really positive evening.

People • Places • Planet — stronger together. 🌱

🌿 A little bit of TLC around Bishopbriggs! 🌿

We’ve been busy giving a few more local spots a freshen-up this weekend.
At the 175 Scout Hall, we’ve replaced the planters with new raised planters and filled them with a lovely mix of seasonal plants to brighten up the entrance.

We’ve also added additional planters and fresh planting outside Fresh Bakery and Chinese Blossom Restaurant, bringing a bit more colour and greenery to this stretch of the town centre. 🌸🌱

And while we were there, we couldn’t ignore the weeds! 😄 A large overgrown area around the pavement and lamppost has been completely cleared and tidied too — because sometimes it’s the little jobs that make the biggest difference.

A few planters, some colourful plants and a bit of hard graft — all helping to make Bishopbriggs look that little bit better. 💚

Huge thanks to Lesley who helped out with the planting, and please continue to support our fantastic 175 Scout Group and local businesses. 👏

A big THANK YOU to the wonderful Viv at Fresh Bakery for her incredibly generous donation of goodies for our Men’s Shed session last Sunday. ❤️🥐🍰

Viv provided an amazing selection of her fantastic baking for everyone to enjoy while we welcomed MCR Pathways along to the Shed — and, judging by how quickly it disappeared, the Shedders were very impressed! 😋

Viv is an exceptional baker and has been really kind in supporting us, so we’d love to return the favour with a big local shout-out. 👏

If you’re looking for some seriously good home baking, please support Viv and Fresh Bakery. Supporting small local businesses that support their community really does make a difference. 💙

Thanks again, Viv — the Shed definitely approves! 🥧☕️
