'man' may mean both men and women. On the other hand it maybe the 
original use was for males only. I think the value is not good.
There are only 4 uses of the community_centre:for=man in the data base. 
I would prefer a different value... with a clear meaning.

brand rather than operator? I am not certain where the funding comes 
from, some from members contributions.
I'd think each shed has some control over their operations .. so tagging 
the operator might give the wrong impression?
