The SMSA supports the creation and
development of Men's Sheds across Scotland

“Without that first contact with the SMSA, I strongly believe that our Shed would not exist.”

Aberchirder & District Men’s Shed

The Scottish Men’s Sheds Association’s sole focus is to support, promote and represent Men’s Sheds and our members. We assist Scotland’s Shedders and their supporters to create Men’s Sheds in their community to benefit their health and wellbeing across Scotland. If you need help, inspiration or just a chat, you have come to the right place.

In short. We already feel invigorated, more motivated, more active, healthier and indeed happier. Isn’t that what a Shed is about?

Your advice and help in negotiating and securing us a lease has been invaluable. We wish you every success in developing the SMSA to the point that every area in Scotland will have a regional advisor.

There have been times when the task ahead of us has seemed too much and without your presence to re-kindle our motivation we might have faltered.

Many thanks for such a fulsome conversation this morning. Both Lawson and I learnt a great deal from our chat and from your advice. Well Being!
