Men's Sheds
Melton Council's Men's Sheds are located in Taylors Hill and Melton and provide opportunities for 'hands on' practical activities where men can work on projects with other men, in an informal and relaxed setting.
The Melton Men’s Shed is a place for men to come together, to capture and share their skills and experiences. It’s a place to build on the health and well being of men. A place of creativity, of teamwork and for celebrating community spirit. Our Shed is for blokes aged 25 years and over, though we realise that Men’s Sheds traditionally attract many older men, particularly those in or close to retirement. We’re keen to involve men who have particular skills and who’d gladly help teach others and we’re equally keen to have blokes involved who want to learn from others. Or maybe you just want to come along for a cuppa and a chat?
Activities:
Woodwork – BYO Project and Community Projects
CNC machine, Social Groups, Gardening Group, Trivia, Drop in for Chat, On Ya bike – Cycling Group, Pool table, Social Darts
