The Rotherhithe Shed is a collaboration between London Bubble and our neighbours Time & Talents. Set up for older men (55yrs+) in Southwark (but welcomes men and women), and based on the very successful Australian Men’s Shed movement, is the shed at the bottom of the garden that may people don’t have access to.
The Shed is open on:
- Thursdays, 1.30 – 4.30pm*
- In the London Bubble workshop, 5 Elephant Lane, SE16 4JD
- Free
- Autumn Term: The Shed will be open on Thursdays only until the 19th December
If you are coming to the Shed please:
- bring a project to work on
- Ask for guidance if you are unfamiliar with any tool or machine
- wear a face covering in the workshop and other protective equipment if asked to do so
- contact us in advance if you're coming for the first time
The Rotherhithe Shed is open on Thursday afternoons, for people aged 55 and over.
If you have a project you’d like to work on and are looking for tools, support & space to make it a reality, come and join us.
It’s free to join.
A partnership project between London Bubble Theatre Company and Time & Talents, it aims to bring together older men (and women) to put their practical skills to good use – fixing, making, whittling, drilling, sawing and generally tinkering.
Sessions are held in a well equipped workshop where members can work together on a range of practical activities. Skilled artists and technical experts are available to support members, and project ideas are strongly encouraged and developed. If you have something that needs mending or maintaining, be it a wobbly chair or a squeaky bike bring it along.
Rotherhithe Shed is a good opportunity for anyone looking for social and creative experiences, including a chance to make new friends, to experience the camaraderie of working with other men or simply putting practical skills to good use.
Whether you are someone looking to learn new skills or already highly skilled, there is a role for you at Rotherhithe Shed.
