As we settle into the first week of November and recognize Men’s Mental Health Month, it is a great reminder that taking care of our minds is just as important as taking care of our physical health.

Sometimes, all it takes to lift a weight off your shoulders is a good chat, a shared skill, and a brew with good company. If you have been feeling a bit bored, retired, lonely, or are just looking for some time out, the Street and Walton Men’s Shed is here for you.

We are a welcoming, community-based workshop where you can work on practical projects, share skills, or just drop in for a cuppa, a slice of cake, and a friendly ear. You do not need to be a woodworking expert; whether you want to make stuff, learn something new, or simply have a chat, new members are always welcome!

📍 Where: Hempitts Farm, Walton, Somerset, BA16 9QS
🕒 When:
Monday: 9:00 AM - 12:30 PM
Tuesday & Thursday: 9:00 AM - 4:30 PM

Come on down and see what we are all about. If you would like to chat beforehand, feel free to give Aaron a call at 07498968203, Brian at 01458 443940, or drop us an email at [email protected].

There is nothing we love more at the Street and Walton Men’s Shed than seeing a finished project head out the door to a good home! 🔨🏠

We’ve just dropped off this handcrafted Buddy Bench to the lovely lot at Hindhayes Infants. From the rustic log frame to the custom backrest designed by one of the pupils, every bit of it was made with care by our members.

We hope it helps spark plenty of new friendships on the playground. It’s already passed the 'sit test' (as you can see!), so it's officially ready for action! 🪵✨

Why we do what we do. ❤️

We recently had the pleasure of refurbishing this beautiful dining table, and receiving this message from the owner truly touched us all. Knowing that the tools used to finish this piece came from her late father’s workshop makes this project incredibly special.

A huge thank you for the kind words and for trusting us with such a treasured family heirloom. It was an honor to bring it back to life. Next up: the chairs! 🪑✨

"A HUGE thank you to all at Street & Walton Men's Shed for refurbishing our beloved and treasured dining table. It's just gorgeous, like new! 🤩 Highly recommend these skillful chaps who know their stuff! And if you have any tools or are doing a house clearance, please do remember they are always looking for more! My dad died 5 years ago and they were thrilled to come and clear his workshop, and I like to think he somehow had a hand in refurbishing the table (as he would have loved to have done). Thanks again, guys, chairs next on the list!!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐"
