Men's Sheds
Our Vision: "Men's Health through Social Connection". We aim to assist ageing men in facing significant life-change issues.
Talk of a Men's Shed in Sorrento began in 2013 and was revived in 2018. A short survey through the Sorrento Community Centre showed considerable interest in supporting a new Shed. With the help of the Community Centre and the Mornington Peninsula Shire, the "Point Nepean Men's Shed" became a reality. Membership support has grown to currently 100 full members and over 60 associates.
Our "home" is the former Southern Peninsula Rescue Squad helipad in Sorrento Park, where passive and social activities occur. We now have a second building in Stringer Reserve Blairgowrie for small assembly projects, a fully-operating car hoist and the home of our "Mobile Workshop'.
We are well established within our local community supporting projects for primary schools, pre-schools and other not-for-profit organisations. All activities are always managed in a safe and sensible manner, engaging men from all backgrounds in friendly endeavours.
Activities include Creative collection, community outreach, card night, car group, woodworking, music appreciation, lunches and functions, social connection.
