Welcome to The Glenrothes Men's Shed

WHO ARE WE AND WHAT DO WE DO?

We’re just a bunch or ordinary folk, mostly retired, who like to get together because we have nothing else to do! Sometimes we just sit and chat, other times we do a bit of woodwork, DIY, computer stuff or just watch a video.

The most important time we have is our Tea Break - when everyone sits at our large table and joins in the conversation that could be on any topic, or just setting the world to rights in our own way!

We don’t have any employees, staff, instructors or support workers - so  what ever you want to do when you get here will be totally up to you.

Our opening hours are 
MONDAY 10.00 A.M.- 1.00 P.M.
TUESDAY  10.A.M. - 4.00 P.M.
WEDNESDAY 10.00 A.M. - 1.00 P.M.
THURSDAY 10.00 A.M. - 1.00 P.M. and 7.00 P.M. - 10.00 P.M.
FRIDAY 10.00 A.M. - 1.00 P.M.
TELEPHONE NUMBER 01592 769271

We have a huge, fully equipped workshop, a dedicated craft shed, a massive polytunnel, computer suite, library room, large kitchen, our coffee room/reception. They're all accessible to wheelchairs and the less agile.

We are located on Poplar Road in the Old Scout Hut which is behind TARGET TYRES / CO-OP on Woodside road, 

Why not come in for a tea/coffee and a biscuit and see if you like what we do.

The purpose of the organisation is to provide recreational facilities and advance the social needs, health and well-being of men and women of all ages and backgrounds in the Auchmuty and other areas of Glenrothes and surrounding areas by:

a) Creating, developing and maintaining a facility, namely a Men’s Shed.

b) Offering opportunities to meet and undertake creative, physical, purposeful and recreational activities of their choice.

c) Reducing isolation in the area thus contributing to their physical and mental wellbeing.

d) Developing the capacity to share their skills and knowledge with others in the community.
