Is there an thing similar to mens shed for ladies in letterkenny

Hi, myself and my wife have moved to letterkenny lately, we are in our early 30s, neither of us are from the area, she works from home, is a bit shy and is starting to feel a little isolated. She does yoga classes but is still having trouble making friends.

I am just wondering is there anything similar to mens shed or craft classes that she might enjoy and find it easier to strike up conversation. Any other suggestions to things she could do in letterkenny to make friends.

I don't live in Letterkenny but I think Craft Heaven up behind Glencar Shopping Centre do craft classes so it might be worth checking them out.

The Women's Centre on Port Road (opposite the theatre) will have notices of groups/coffee mornings/ courses etc

I would think about evening classes in any area that she is interested in.

Get involved in volunteering, be it sports, community or special interests.

There are fitness classes all over the place, can be quite social.

Personally, I would recommend Toastmasters as a way to both meet people and help with the shyness. Search Letterkenny Toastmasters or PM me for more details.

Other pastimes such as cycling, photography, hillwalking are all well catered for, there are plenty of options sure try a few to see what works.

The Men's shed in Letterkenny now run a few courses for women. I did a health and safefy on electric tools course with them last year and a follow on course for women who wanted to make something with their new skills. I also did a wood turning course in there. I highly recommend them. They are on Facebook as Letterkenny Men's Shed.

I'm always on for meeting new people. If she would like to meet up for a cuppa and a chat sometime, I'd like that
