The founder of the Basingstoke Shed - Mike Brading - has died after a long illness.
Following a career in software and website development, Mike set up the Basingstoke charity in 2016. The organisation combats loneliness by offering workshop space and equipment for people to mend and make things for the local community. Schools, playgroups, the town's library and pantomime performers are among those who have benefited from the skills encouraged by the Basingstoke Shed.
Mike was a driving force, not only starting the charity, but also raising funds, attracting volunteers and generally keeping everything in order.
His funeral will be held on 29th January.
