Story



The boys of Harpur House at Bedford Prep School will be running 'The Big Bedford School Cricket Bowl-off' on Friday 1st July 2022. This event will be raising money for the ‘Men in Sheds Bedford’ charity. The aim of this local charity is to keep men active and healthy by getting them out of the house and meeting people, making friends, and doing interesting things. They will have fun working with others in pursuing their hobbies and practical interests.

This is a very fitting cause for Harpur House to support this year. The GP Ann Robinson said, ”If there is one thing that is the enemy of wellbeing it is loneliness. Get out there and connect with people.” Men in Sheds Bedford aims to do just that. Please help us raise as much money for this very worthy local cause. Good luck, Harpur!! Let's get BOWLING!!!!

Men in Sheds Bedford’s aim is to keep men, or ladies, active and healthy by getting them out of the house, talking to and meeting people, making friends, and doing stuff together. All leading to a positive mental state. Numerous studies link mental well being with physical well being. Not to mention the physical benefits of just moving about and getting out of the house a few time a week, and being engaged in creating things, and helping people. Many members have a host of skills and find sharing those skills to be a quite positive experience; and of course, learning new skills, or refining old ones, keeps the mind active. Although primarily organised around practical skills, the shed is open to everyone, regardless of age, gender, or even the ability to hammer in a nail. But possibly the biggest reason for joining Men In Sheds Bedford is for the fun, through discussion, banter, life stories, and all just getting together in a lighthearted environment of like minded people in the camaraderie of the workplace
