\"\"Supported by the Interreg 2 Seas programme, it has contributed to improving men\u2019s health and wellbeing<\/strong> by bringing them together in a new generation of Sheds.<\/p>\n

These Sheds are the basis of the SBS Model: welcoming places<\/strong> where men can meet to (re)create social links, find peer-to-peer support<\/strong>, share and learn skills, and support each other<\/strong> in terms of their health and employment, in an environment free of judgement. A particular focus has been socially isolated men, and those with poor mental health or wellbeing.<\/p>\n

Despite the pandemic, SBS has achieved significant results within its geographical area, and has begun to spread the Model more widely within Europe. Some \u201cShedders\u201d (those who attend Sheds) have taken on responsibilities as shed leaders<\/strong>, \u201chealth champions<\/strong>\u201d or \u201cemployment coaches<\/strong>\u201d, helping to make their sheds more autonomous and sustainable, linking with relevant service providers and local communities.<\/p>\n

ADICE set up 3\u00a0sheds<\/strong>, each with a “job coach & health champion” whose role was to be the contact person for each shed. In total, more than 21 meetings<\/strong> were scheduled, bringing together 86 men and women<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

On October 8th 2021, an online conference highlighted the impact and achievements of SBS<\/strong>, with keynote speakers such as Barry Golding (a leading researcher on Men\u2019s Sheds), Martin Tod (Chief Executive of the UK Men\u2019s Health Forum) and Phil Packer (Mental Health and Wellbeing Advocate). SBS partners shared the best practices developed over the 4 years of the project, meaning that whilst the project is ending, Sheds can continue to flourish and learn from our work<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The documents to help current and future Sheds, and the recording of the conference, can be found at\u00a0sbs-wellbeing.eu<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>\n
