Welcome to WomenzShed
Kia ora and welcome
Our mission at WomenzShed is to educate, empower, connect and inspire women through woodworking, DIY and other trade activities. Whether you’re a crafter or DIYer, a hobbyist or thinking about entering the trades, we are here to help.
We are a team of experienced and qualified women who guide, support and teach women of all ages to confidently work with hand tools, power tools and machinery through positive, practical hands-on experiences.
We look forward to seeing you soon.

We recently chatted with Susie Ferguson and Mihingarangi Forbes on RNZ Saturday Morning about gaining skills and access to workshop space.

Support our mission
Spaces for learning woodwork are hard to come by. For many women, the barrier isn’t interest, it’s access. We are working to create a workshop space where women can learn, create, and feel genuinely welcome. With your support, we can open the doors sooner.
