For some men, retirement is a long-awaited chance to travel the world, hit the golf course, or take up a new hobby. For others, after decades in work, it can be a time of loneliness and isolation.
But across Scotland, a new movement is helping growing numbers of men improve their health and their mood.
Men's Sheds have been set up across the country to enable men to come together to pursue practical interests like wood-turning and metalwork.
Age Scotland said it was in contact with 101 sheds, ranging from established projects to new initiatives and some linked to other organisations.
A new report by the charity outlines the impact the initiative has had on the lives of those who use the sheds.
In The Shed Effect, men describe why they first turned to their local shed and how it has changed their lives.

Excellent shed at a fantastic price easy to assemble delivered on time. Would highly recommend
We bought a shed from ShedsFirst, it was easy to find the right size from the range on their website and the ordering process was simple. The shed arrived on time and was well packaged to prevent damage. The quality of the wood is really good. The only area that we cannot wholeheartedly praise is that the assembly instructions could have been clearer. But on the whole, we definitely recommend them.<br />
Great communication at all stages of order, delivered on time and high quality shed which was easy to install, would highly recommend, we are very happy with our purchase.
ShedsFirst is a best company. I have ever used. Customer service were brilliant and quick to respond. Top quality product for a great price. I am grateful to them.
