Set in the grounds of California Lodge Garden Centre, Howden Men’s Shed is a friendly, busy place where men of all ages can come and learn new skills, practice old ones, or just put the world to rights over a cup of tea!

It’s not just about building and making things, it’s about building friendships, making social connections and sharing skills, knowledge and a lot of laughter!

If you have had enough of daytime TV, if you have 'nothing to do' or nowhere to do it or if you just want to meet up with a bunch of likeminded chaps for a cuppa and a chinwag just come along and say hello!

We are open every Tuesday and Wednesday from 10:30-13:00,so if you are interested just drop in for a cup of tea and have a look around - you are guaranteed a warm reception!

Vaccines protect your child from measles, meningitis and other serious illnesses. 🧒

Thinking about attending one of our groups, but not sure if you’re ready to talk?

At our groups we have the 'talking ball' which is great for making sure that guys never feel any pressure to talk.

It gets passed around the circle to each guy when it's their turn to talk, if you're not ready to talk, simply pass it along.

You can take it all at your own pace. ❤️

Visit our website to find your nearest group or drop us an email to info@andysmanclub.co.uk to join our online groups.

No fees. No booking. No registration. Open to any man 18+ every Monday 7-9PM (excluding bank holidays).
