Badenoch Men's Shed For people in the Badenoch community who wish to support the creation of a Men’s Shed. Many thanks! https://checkout.justgiving.com/uk7csnzw8n

If you wish to make a donation, please follow this link to our Just Giving page. A men’s shed is a safe social space for all men with time on their hands, to come together to socialise and carry out a range of purposeful activities chosen by the shedders for themselves or for their local community. Sheds aim to provide positive views of aging and later life, tackle loneliness and isolation and help older men to be as well as they can be. The Cairngorm National Park covers a significant area. Isolation and loneliness can be a significant issue. The nearest Man Shed is in Grantown on Spey, very much at the north end of the Park


Loneliness kills. It is a public health crisis. It is as dangerous to a person’s health as smoking 15 ci******es a day. It increases the risk of stress, anxiety and depression and doubles the risk of dementia. Loneliness can occur at different ages and stages; however, many of the triggers tend to congregate in later life due to life changes such as bereavement, retirement, moving to a new area, illness or children moving away from home.
100,000 older people in Scotland feel lonely all or most of the time. 200,000 will go half a week without a visit or call from anyone.

🏆 Who’s the person who makes your Shed what it is?

Last year, Robert Taylor from Medway men in sheds was named Shedder of the Year.

Registered blind and living with significant health challenges, Rob first found his Shed when he needed connection and support himself. Over time, he became one of the people others could rely on.

From research, fundraising and admin to checking in on members, mentoring others and simply being there when someone needs him, Rob’s contribution reaches into almost every part of Shed life.

Chances are, there’s a Rob in your Shed too.

Someone who quietly goes above and beyond. Who notices when someone hasn’t turned up. Who shares their skills, keeps things moving, makes the tea, sorts the problem or makes sure everyone feels welcome.

This is your chance to make sure their contribution doesn’t go unnoticed.

Nominations for Shedder of the Year are open as part of the UK Men’s Sheds Awards 2026 – alongside awards celebrating Community Projects, Partnerships, Health and Wellbeing, the Armed Forces community, Green Sheds, Heritage & History and more.

So whether there’s a brilliant Shedder who deserves a thank you, or a project your whole Shed is proud of, tell us about it.

⏰ Nominations close at midnight on Sunday 27 September.

Find all the categories, guidance and nomination details here:

Don’t assume someone else will nominate them… 👀
