Baldoyle & District Men's Shed was first established three years ago, after being suggested by Fingal County Council, to members of a Men's Group, which was run under Baldoyle Family Resource Services. After months of meetings, courses and planning, a "home" to begin with was found... The Baldoyle Youth Club. To get us started, we were kindly supported by Fingal County Council and the Baldoyle Family Resource Services Centre in holding an Information evening, advertising and handing out flyers in the Marine Hotel in Sutton.
As the men's shed expanded, the premises at the Baldoyle Youth Club became an issue for some members, as the flight of stairs was a problem. So we began to look around for a new premises that would better suit members needs, which led us to where we are now today. A small old boat house building off the left hand side of Baldoyle Forum. The shed may be small, but we have a big wonderful view.
