Great to see the skills of our talented shedders being put to good use!

This time, it’s upholstery — giving this sofa a whole new lease of life!

The sofa was kindly given to us by someone who had originally brought it with plans to do it up, but never quite got around to giving it the makeover it deserved. Well, it’s finally having its moment!

Thanks to the generous donations of foam and material as well.

Brilliant opportunity to showcase some of the skills and creativity of our shedders... watch this space...

We are so chuffed with the kind donation of this machine from some very generous people we have never met.

They have asked to remain anonymous, but we want them to know just how truly appreciated their generosity is.

We can’t wait to put it to good use with our shedders and see all the great things we can create with it.

What a brilliant end of summer BBQ we had yesterday!

It was fantastic to bring together Shedders, folk from The Well Communities, Andy from Vineyard, and give a day to the city for an evening of good food, great company and plenty of sunshine!

A huge thank you to Georgina, Co-op funeral care and the Co-op, who not only generously donated towards the event but also got stuck in and joined us. We really appreciate your support!

The sun was shining, there was loads of food (a little bit was even healthy!) And most importantly, there was lots of laughter and great conversations.

One of our talented shedders has done an amazing job upcycling this discarded piece of furniture! What a fantastic transformation—proof that one person’s unwanted furniture can become another person’s treasure.
