Several businesses, organizations and individuals have helped to get the Dusty Shed up and running. We have had generous support in the form of tools, machinery, materials, and a great deal of practical help when we started in 2016. Since then we have had funding from several sources to meet our operating costs, to run craft and skills workshops, and to improve our premises.
