Walcha Mens Shed Inc

Walcha is situated 411km from Sydney, 270km from Newcastle along Thunderbolt's Way via Gloucester and 183km from Port Macquarie on the Oxley Highway. Walcha is about 64kms from Armidale, and 90 km to Tamworth on the junction of the Oxley Highway and Thunderbolts Way. The Walcha shire is situated on the New England Tablelands and has some of the most breathtaking  scenery in the country. There are the outstanding formations of  the Apsley Falls and the Wild River gorges of the Macleay valley. The area has some of the most productive agricultural land which produces fine wool, fat lambs and cattle.
We obtained a lease from the Amaroo Land Council on the 1st November 2010 and commenced operation.The banner picture for the web site was taken the day the men's shed was officially opened on the 25th February 2011.
The Walcha Men's Shed provides a drop in centre for men to have a chat and interact with other men. Members can get involved in woodwork, metalwork or plant nursery depending on your interests or just drop in for a cup of tea or coffee and a yarn. We also provide computer access for anyone wishing to access the web, send and receive email or even just write a letter. Don’t be shy, please feel free to drop in and visit us.

Activities:
We are always looking to offer a variety of programs and activities to suit a range of men’s interests and needs. Here are some of the things that are on offer.
The Walcha Men’s shed is a place where skilled and unskilled men of all ages can share time with each other, swapping yarns and working together on personal or community based projects.
Retired men find the shed a great social place. Men seeking new interests or skills will find it a more relaxed place to try something new.
All men are welcome to participate at the ‘Shed’ with many retired members of the community volunteering to help with running the Shed’s many projects and activities.
