Everyone's welcome.

As this is a National Lottery Funded project in partnership with Frome Town Council and Frome Medical Practice, we have criteria we need to meet. Most projects and ideas fit into the offer, but occasionally (especially for projects directly focusing on health) we will need to discuss your idea to ensure it fits! Contact us with any questions you have.

Why 'Future Shed'?

The 'shed movement' is about people meeting up in a space to share skills, helping each other to fix, repair and create. Our 'shed' is about the Future - our shed is about ideas, energy, creativity and connection. Our 'shed' is about meeting up to build relationships, start ups and growing initiatives . We can also use it as a space for practical making. It is a space where people come together to share ideas and bring green and healthy initiatives to fruition.

Future Shed is a project by Edventure: Frome as part of the Green & Healthy Future for Frome project in partnership with Frome Medical Practice and Frome Town Council. It is funded by The National Lottery Community Fund.

Future Shed Friday sessions are hosted by Sue Palmer (Future Shed Lead).

The Welsh Mill Hub is Edventure's professional shared workspace and community venue. It includes The Cave meeting room and Remakery: Frome - a community workshop for fixers, makers and do-ers.

We are aware that the Edventurel Hub is impossible to access for wheeled users, and we apologise for this. Due to the age and design of the building, we currently have barriers that will affect access for some. The Edventure Hub is accessed via two short flights of stairs (around 12 steps in total with a turn). There is no lift available. There is no accessible toilet. Fire Exits in the building are stairs.
