Bob's Blog - October 2023
There are a few things of note to report in my latest Blog! These have been quite momentous events really in the short history of the shed.
Wendover Shed is a project to establish a community workspace in Wendover. Practically-minded people are able to meet, work on joint projects (or their own), and share ideas and experience.
There is access to tools, electricity and, almost as important, a kettle!
Check here regularly for updates as the shed is established.
The Wendover Shed team had always planned to use solar and wind-generated power as our home is entirely off-grid. We were fortunate enough to receive grants from the Clare Foundation and the Wendover and Village Board of Bucks Council and thanks to them our full solar array is now fully operational.
We planned to create an outdoor area in front of The Hog to allow us to work outside in all weathers, powered by our portable battery packs.
Fundraising is now complete, thanks to some private contributors and a very kind donation by the Lionel Abel Smith Trust. Design work is complete and the build is now underway.
