Charnwood Shed – Loughborough
We had a stall at Loughborough Christmas Charity Market on Sunday 24 November. We sold items made by Men and Women in Sheds, Loughborough, a lot of them were made using reclaimed and recycled materials. We made over £400 towards the cost of keeping the Shed open.
We get amazing support from AgeUK, Charnwood Borough, Leicestershire County Council and others but we need to raise more money to keep the Shed operating.
We make and sell items at various events and also receive commissions for things like benches and planters. See our Sales page >>
Since July we’ve raised more than £5,000! See our chart below. We’re aiming to raise £12,500 for the year – so we’re pretty much on target.
We’ve been awarded “Outstanding” in the “It’s your Neighbourhood” section of the Britain in Bloom awards.
The garden was judged on 3 criteria:
and we received 87 out of 100 possible points which gave us the top Level 5 – OUTSTANDING.
Last year we achieved level 4 so all the hard work this year has paid off.
