Local Connections

Following an appeal from Ballumbie Hedgehog Rescue (and following on from CC Juniors hedgehog theme in February!) a couple of us went to visit The Men’s Shed In Invergowrie to try to build links within the local community. Long story short – the Men’s Shed have helped us in the production of a hedgehog house which in turn has helped Ballumbie who are delighted with our efforts to try to provide a safe shelter for a hedgehog! All we have to do now is wait and hope …. 🦔 

The Men’s Shed is a fantastic environment for men (only) who enjoy working with wood and metal and is a place to chat, work, relax and get support from others.  It’s a huge area with lots going on. It really was inspiring to see the projects happening and luckily Jim (Ashwood) was able to work with a friend who is a member there and wow! look at their finished product! 🤩  Thanks so much for a great job Jim!

We are very grateful to The Men’s Shed for donating these beautiful wooden items made by their members. We hope to sell them within the Parish as a fundraiser. They look amazing! Thank you Men’s Shed!
