We have set ourselves the monumental task of building a new much-needed WMS Building by the end of 2026. We have already been granted planning permission on our new site, but there is a huge list of tasks which need to be performed in the right sequence if our vision is to become reality. Documents, photos and stories relating to this massive effort will be posted here.
WMS New Home Will Benefit Other Local Groups
Wharfedale Men’s Shed (WMS) is set to expand its operations with a new facility at Grove Hill, available 24/7, unlike the Old Courthouse’s single-day restriction. To optimize use, WMS will share space with local groups, including Burley-in-Wharfedale Men’s Shed (BMS), which will access workshop facilities at least one day per week.
The Continuing Search for a New Home
Wharfedale Men’s Shed (WMS) began its journey in March 2019 and has grown with a vision for a purpose-built home. After years of searching and planning, a design for a new workshop has secured planning consent, marking an exciting step toward making this vision a reality.
