About Australia · 10 June 2026
Men's Sheds
We’re a small shed with a diverse membership. We enjoy our weekly social gatherings and monthly dinners. There is an activities room that can
comfortably seat up to 50 people dining, with piano, dart-board, ping pong table and a pool table. We invite other compatible community groups to share this area.
For catering there is a reasonable kitchen that we are seeking approval to refurbish as a licenced cooking area to enable better teaching/training capability and greater
use by other community groups. We invite guest speakers and run information sessions. We will be joining the Local Council organised male-specific wellness
program to be conducted for Men’s Sheds. We have a unique collection of rainforest timbers for use in our compact, well equipped workshop.
Fundraising is through grants, donations and raffles at the local pub.
Activities:
Wood work – small scale with one or two big pieces per year, Art classes, Community services. Repairs and Maintenance/assistance. Cooking and dining together for skills/nutrition training, or as a fundraiser
