Welcome to
Cambridge Community MenzShed,
A Shed of Champions.
The return of Cambridge Community MenzShed is happening.
The Cambridge Community Menzshed is set to open in 2024 at the former Leamington Dairy Factory, 116 Carlyle Street. Located where Carlyle, Rotoorangi, and Lamb Streets meet, we're excited to restore this building for a place where fellow enthusiasts can share skills, volunteer, and enjoy camaraderie. Stay tuned for more updates.
August Update
Well it has been all go behind the scenes at the Cambridge MenzShed.
We now have a fully signed Community Lease at 151 Carlyle Street for a period of 15 years. Thanks for the hard work securing this committee members and thank you Cambridge Council.
If you are passing the MenzShed building you will now see the new Cambridge MenzShed signs up on the building. They look fantastic.
After a few delays the new roof is due to start on the 26th August by the Councils contractor so keep an eye out for this. Im unsure what colour we are getting but im sure the sun wont be reflecting into any neighbours eyes.
July MenzShed Update
Big thanks to those MenShed members who were able to make it on Wednesday (10th July) with their rolled up their sleeves, gloves, shovels, pry bars etc and got stuck into clearing out the old Dairy Factory of its unwanted goods and rubbish.
This went very smoothly and we created a good pile of rubbish.
We would also like to give a big thanks to Paul Garland and his team for providing his digger, tractor and trailer and helping to level the surface around the shed, giving the grounds a good clean up and then carting away the excess grass and soil.
Paul and his Team were at it again on Thursday (today). Amazing generosity Paul.
