NORTHAMPTON COMMUNITY SHEDS

As a Community Shed we provide a place in Northampton where local people, particularly older or partially-disabled people, can learn, teach, and pursue practical interests and skills, for themselves and others. Here people can engage in charitable practical work at a relaxed and leisurely pace, in a safe, friendly, and inclusive environment.

Analysis by Giving is Great
