Northampton Community Sheds – More Than Just a Workshop!

There’s something special about our little community at Northampton Community Sheds. Whether it's the sound of saws buzzing in the workshop, the chatter over a freshly brewed cuppa, or the simple joy of sharing a homemade cake (thanks, Pam!).

We are delighted to donate the three handcrafted items to the auction in aid of KidsAid Northampton. There’s lots of amazing lots that bid on. All raised money will help local children access the support they need.

Morning all,

Here’s a video of what Pam and Alec have in mind for this unwanted piece of furniture. ⬇️ πŸŽ₯

Can you help?

Our current space/workshop is within Spencer Contact which has been amazing. However, it’s a bit too small for us now and we have got to the point where we can only take on a few new members if that! πŸ› οΈβ˜•οΈ

We're on the hunt for a new place to call home, where we can expand our membership, collaborate more with the amazing local community, and create a comfy, sociable space for everyone to come together.

Do you know of any vacant premises?

Or know someone who does?

Maybe you’re secretly a superhero with the power to find awesome workshop spaces? πŸ¦Έβ€β™‚οΈπŸ¦Έβ€β™€οΈ

Drop us message if you can help.

Our wish list

🌟Minimum 2500 sq ft

🌟Parking for at least fifteen cars

🌟 Ground floor only

🌟 On a bus route

🌟 Northampton

Thanks in advance for your help and happy shed hunting! πŸ”πŸ
