This project encourages older men to learn new skills and share existing ones in an effort to overcome barriers to participation in four areas in Cheshire. While older women are keen to join in lifelong learning activities, older men tend to be more reticent and reluctant. The project focuses on woodworking, however other 'sheds' will be considered such as metalworking, art or music.
