HERSTMONCEUX MEN’S SHED is part of the Vitality Villages group of activities in the village. The Men’s Shed meets in the science block at Herstmonceux Castle (and is open to everyone). Members can work on their own woodworking or craft project, join others on group projects or simply enjoy a cup of tea. In the past the Men’s Shed has made ladder stiles, benches, bird or dormouse boxes, and even repaired the church gates and Parish Council flagpoles. Mondays 10am to 1pm. Wednesdays from 10.15am to 4.30pm. Please ring Alan on 07946 604201 to check for all sessions.

MANKIND
Free support group every Friday night from 6 to 8.30pm at Hailsham East Community Centre, Vega Close, Hailsham BN27 2JZ. This is a free support and listening group for men. It is a hard fact of life that 1 in 4 men will suffer ill mental health challenges in their lifetime. 94 men per week, 2 per day in the building industry, are taking their own lives. Men account for 75% of all suicides. Take one small step to mankind and one giant step for yourself. It is a big step to say, “I need help.” The World is changing. It is not weak to speak. Go along and chat or just listen.
