Orkney Men’s Shed will officially open for business in their newly acquired shed in Finstown on Friday 21st of July from 6.30pm till 8.30pm.

Orkney Men’s Shed is part of the grass roots movement the Scottish Men’s Shed Association:

 “a Scottish Men’s Shed is a permanent meeting place where lots of good community and healthy ‘self and group determined’ experiences take place. They take place by ‘everyday’ people with ‘time on their hands’ willing to act with the skills they already have within their local community.”  WWW.scottishmsa.org.uk.

It also has a Facebook page.

To get to the Orkney Men’s Shed it’s a short walk from Finstown car park. Turn left out of the car park towards Kirkwall and it is the first on the left.
