Now in its 10th year, the Shed has grown from a small group of friends working out of the GAA car park to a thriving community hub at 16 The Square, where members meet weekly to share skills, restore projects, and support one another's wellbeing.
As part of their nomination, the group's cross-border and cross-community projects were singled out for special mention, recognising how friendships forged in the Shed have helped bring people together from across the region.
The awards ceremony takes place at Westminster on Thursday 27 November, where Rostrevor Men's Shed will proudly represent Rostrevor and the north.
PR Officer Gethin Hughes said: "We're incredibly proud of this recognition. The Shed has always been about friendship, creativity and community spirit, and it's an honour to have that celebrated nationally."
The group is planning a local celebration before they head to London and are inviting supporters to follow their journey on Facebook and Instagram at @RostrevorMensShed.
