Since Heatons' Men in Sheds started back in 2018, we’ve been incredibly grateful for the generous donations of tools and timber from our amazing community. Thanks to your kindness, our shed is now completely full and we’ve run out of storage space!

Because of this, we’re temporarily suspending donations of tools and wood until further notice.

A huge thank you to everyone who has supported us over the years with their generosity — it’s truly appreciated. 🔧🪵😊

Would your group like to run a LITTLE FREE LIBRARY?
Little Free Libraries are small, weatherproof book boxes placed in public spots, offering a simple “take a book, return a book” way to share reading with the community.
Back in 2022, we built one for Manchester Road Park in Stockport — but sadly, it was vandalised soon after installation. We repaired it, put it back… and it was vandalised again, this time even set on fire. We were then asked not to reinstall it as it seemed to be attracting the wrong kind of attention.
So our plans to create more Little Libraries were put on hold.
But there’s good news! Recently, we were sent a photo of a Little Library in Taupō, New Zealand — built by the local Men’s Shed — www.facebook.com/TaupoMenShed and it’s on wheels!
This means it can be rolled safely indoors when not in use.
If your group has a secure location where a wheeled Little Library could be used, we’d love to hear from you.
We’re always happy to take on projects that benefit the community. To get in touch or submit a project idea, please use the contact form on our website: www.heatons-mis.co.uk

SIGNS. Does your group need a sign making? It could be a 32 foot (9.75 meters) monster like the one pictured here on Heaton Chapel & Heaton Moor Station or something more modest like the one we made for All Saints Church on Manchester Road SK4.
Does your group have a SIGN you would like Heatons’ Men in Sheds to consider working on? We carry out all sorts of assignments and over the next few days we are going to show pictures of some of our completed jobs. Please note that we do not carry out work for individuals or businesses only for community groups for example: “Friends of” a park, area or station. The congregation of a church or other place of worship. A charity working in the community.
We charge for the materials we use plus a small surcharge for the running costs of our workshop, and consumables like screws, nails and sandpaper.
We have repaired and made from new a lot of noticeboards as you can see from these pictures. If your organisation would like us to consider a project, please use the contact form on our web site www.heatons-mis.co.uk/
