Hide AdTony (inset) said: “It’s amazing how far we have come in just six months from starting the Men’s Shed, with just one person attending the first meeting, to now having three busy sessions a week and this new shop.
“We want to be there for Fleetwood people who might just need somebody to talk to or want to get involved in the community.
“Our long-term aim is to make a real difference and help improve the lives of local residents.”
