Graham Stuart, MP for Beverley and Holderness, took the opportunity to visit Beverley Men in Sheds – one of three similar projects combatting social isolation in his constituency.
With other projects in Withernsea and Hornsea, the Beverley branch runs in Oldroyd’s Corner inside Beverley Garden Centre. The purpose of the Shed is for older men (and women) to connect while taking part in activities that are often similar to those of garden sheds up and down the country.
Two businesses in Beverley have come up with a unique way to raise money for the Beverley Community Lift through in store competitions.
Beverley Garden Centre and Oldroyd’s Corner have come together and set up a competition where shoppers are tasked with guessing the weight of a giant Pumpkin.
