I’m very pleased to say that my shed electronics workshop has made it through to the public vote for Shed of the Year 2026, a competition celebrating the best sheds across the UK which is currently in its 20th year of running.
This includes a diverse range of sheds divided into several categories – mine has been considered a “budget” category shed because of how careful I have been to save money on it where possible, to maximise spending on my electronics equipment instead.
One shed from all categories will win the highly coveted “Shed of the Year” title, plus a £1,000 cash prize and Tiger sponsor products; a winner from each category then wins a £250 cash prize and sponsor products; there is also a £100 regional winner.
These are serious prizes, but they also come with serious competition – as always, there are a lot of fantastic sheds featured this year, and lots of the owners have a large presence on social and other media, so it’s going to be a tough contest.
That’s why I need your help! The public vote for Shed of the Year 2026 ends on Tuesday 14th July 2026. Voting does not require signing up, and each user/device can vote once per day. If you could vote for my shed workshop by clicking “VOTE FOR THIS SHED” I would be extremely grateful, thank you all very much indeed!
I doubt that we’ll be able to win the overall Shed of the Year 2026 trophy, unfortunately, as there’s much more impressive sheds than mine on there – but a category or regional prize is still a huge amount of money, and would be perfect for helping me get a thermal camera to aid in my electronics repairs, and to help cover my website costs to keep that running too.
I’ve included some pictures below of my workshop – I’ve also taken a video tour, and when I first converted the shed into my workshop back in 2021 I wrote a short blog post about the process. It’s hard to believe how different it looks now!
