Story
Maldon Shed is a community project supporting men at risk of social isolation. It offers access to all the tools and typical man's shed has but in a community space to provide camaraderie and friendships. With nearly 50 members the Shed has made a real difference to local people.
On the 12th April 2017 it was discovered that the shed had been broken into and a large number of tools removed from the premises. This is hugely disappointing and damaging and we want to show the dedicated volunteers and shedders that they have the support of their community, help them to replace what has been stolen and support them to continue to grow.

It's difficult to imagine what sort of person would do this. At least tools can be replaced - it's the people and their spirit that really make the shed. Keep up the excellent work.Beardy guy

This was a travesty. How people can live with themselves after doing something like this to such good people, I'll never know. I hope you guys can rebuild with your spirits higher than ever. Good luck
