YATE MEN'S SHED

Yate Men's Shed provides a community space for men to connect, converse and create. We hold two practical sessions at Yate Parish Hall two afternoons a week. Offering extensive workshop facilities for groups of men to enjoy together, including just drinking tea and chatting. The sessions help reduce loneliness and isolation, but most importantly, they are fun.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • There have been no income shortfalls in recent years
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Why is the Board completely male?

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
