Dinorben Carol Singing 2025 for Church Crookham and Fleet Mens Shed

Jeni Trice is raising money for Church Crookham and Fleet Mens Shed

Carol Singing · 22 December 2025

A men’s shed is a larger version of the typical man’s shed in the garden – a place where he feels at home and pursues practical interests with a high degree of autonomy. A men’s shed offers members a place to work on projects at their own pace and in a safe, friendly and inclusive venue. A shed’s activities usually involve making or mending in wood (eg carpentry, joinery, turning, carving, whittling, marquetry, furniture renovation) but may include metalworking (milling, sheet metal, welding etc) bike repair, gardening, electronics, tool renovation, boat renovation, model engineering (model railways, planes) and even building a car! Reclamation, reuse and restoration will feature strongly – and some say that is true of the men too! Although sheds mostly attract older men, some have included men of any age, women and young people. Whichever activities are pursued the essence of a shed is not a building, which some don’t have, but the network of relationships between the members.

Story

After a year off last year, we're delighted to be getting the Dinorben Carol singing sorted again and hoping people might still be keen - you are welcome to invite friends and family to join us too!

This year it’s on Monday 22nd December 2025 at 6pm, starting point still to be confirmed, but it’s either the postbox, or the usual green area outside 55 Dinorben Close. Hope you're free to join us! Kim is helping with the organising again and kindly hosting the mulled wine and nibbles afterwards.

I've set up a new WhatsApp group so we can chat about it all - you can join here: https://chat.whatsapp.com/Hs28GEAkTd7CQBs0W7144f

Our charity this year will be the Church Crookham and Fleet Men's Shed which supports men's mental health.

All Dinorben residents and their friends are very welcome to join us for the singing and socialising afterwards.

If you cannot find us you can try texting Jeni on 07739 072361 to find out where we are, or message to join our Dinorben Carols WhatsApp.

Please support us if you can – either with your voices or your pennies!
