Whether you're looking to try something new, share your skills, make new friends or simply enjoy a cuppa and a chat, there's a place for you at Dorking Men's Shed.
No experience needed – just come along and say hello!
LIFE AT DORKING MEN'S SHED
MAKING & CREATING
Get involved in practical projects, learn from others and share your own skills. Whether you have a personal project that you need support on, or you're keen to get involved in some of the community projects that we make - we are proud to have a range of tools and equipment for you to learn and use.

COFFEE & CONNECTION
Not everyone wants to work on a personal project, some just enjoy the company and conversation. Either way, during our Thursday & Saturday Shed sessions you can guarantee there will be coffee, cake, and plenty of conversation.

WALKS & ACTIVITIES
Join in with activities beyond the workshop, including the weekly Wednesday Walk which takes on scenenic routes around Dorking, come rain or shine! We also have monthly activities like our fish & chips and games night, and coffee mornings at The Watermill. View the full schedule on our events calendar.

COMMUNITY PROJECTS
We are so proud to be able to use our skills to help the local community, whether that's the Santa's Sleigh's we've become famous for, or our more bespoke projects where we have built apparatus for local schools and residential care homes. Giving back to our community is something we feel extremely passionate about.
