Our popular Tools of the Trade for Women course is back in April at the St Andrews Men's Shed.

This free 10-session course is for women and gender diverse people over 55 years who would like to learn how to complete basic maintenance and DIY tasks in the home, delivered in a safe and welcoming environment, while connecting socially and making friends.

Participants will be introduced to a range of tools and techniques, their purpose and how to use them safely to complete home maintenance tasks including:

  • plastering a hole in the wall
  • replacing tap washers
  • using an electric drill
  • hanging a picture
  • preparing surfaces, filling and caulking
  • basic carpentry
  • and more.

It is designed to increase women’s confidence and independence to complete home maintenance tasks or projects themselves.

Delivered by volunteers at the Men's Shed.
