In 2021 AMSA received funding from Black Dog Ride to help us develop and roll out our Shed Mates initiative. This shedder wellbeing initiative provides Men’s Sheds with a framework that includes resources and training to either initiate and/or continue their ongoing support for member wellbeing. The strategies have been gathered from Sheds across Australia that focus on the improved mental wellbeing and health outcomes of their members.
We have teamed up with Barmera Community Men’s Shed to host a Shedder’s Wellbeing Workshop, which will include a Shed Mates in Action workshop. You will also have the chance to meet AMSA’s new Shed Support SA/NT, Tim Kroehn.
The program is a great opportunity to get you actively thinking about how your Men’s Shed supports members’ wellbeing in 2024, as well as networking with other Shed members from your region. We encourage your Shed to send a few members along.
Thanks to our partner Black Dog Ride, this workshop is free. Participants will receive barista morning tea and lunch, and workshop materials. Please register (for catering and resource packs), visit https://tix.yt/FKQ
