Biggar and District Men’s Shed

Biggar and District Men’s Shed

Men’s Shed is an organisation that was started in Australia some 20 years in an effort to address the imbalance in health outcomes between men and women. In particular the movement sought to stem the tide of male suicide in remote communities. Such was the success of the Sheds that the idea has gone worldwide and has been enthusiastically adopted in the U.K. to tackle social isolation particularly among men.
