Barry Cooper is the original founder of Men in Sheds (Hull). After suffering from a number of strokes and feeling isolated due to retirement, he set about establishing a Hull based Men in Sheds after watching a television series about the Australian movement. Our vision is to provide a safe, inclusive and supportive space where members can meet, have fun, engage in projects and take part in activities ensuring that Men in Sheds Hull develops into a valuable facility supported by a thriving and active membership.
