Wendover Shed

The Wendover Shed is now operational and looking for volunteers and members, also known as “Shedders”.

After our Open Day on 4 March, our first task was to ensure that we had an ample supply of tea, coffee and biscuits by fitting out a rudimentary kitchen. We have also started to fit out our workshop with a multitude of tooling, benching and storage donated to us by members of the community.

Our home on Hogtrough Lane is entirely “offgrid”, but we are in the process of introducing battery, solar and wind power to The Hog. We have received grants from the Clare Foundation and the Wendover and Villages Community Board towards this project.

We also plan to increase our footprint, with agreement from Wendover Parish Council to erect an outdoor covered area in front of The Hog to allow all-weather working. Design, planning and fundraising is currently underway.

We are open three times a week, on

• Tuesdays 10am-12pm

• Thursdays 2pm-4pm

• Saturdays 11am-1pm

Join us for a Coffee and Natter or get involved with some of our practical activities. We need a range of help from our bigger building projects to making simple items that we can sell, such as bird boxes or garden planters.

If you would like more information or know anyone who might benefit from Wendover Shed, please do get in touch. Better still, come visit us. The kettle is always on.
