SUMMARY:11th AMSA National Men's Shed Gathering
DESCRIPTION:REGISTRATION NOW OPEN: REGISTER HERE OR FIND OUT MORE HERE \nWe’ve set our sights on sunny Brisbane for the 11th AMSA National Men’s Shed Gathering.\nThe AMSA National Men’s Shed Gathering is the Australian Men’s Shed Association’s premier event. Hosted every two years\, we bring together the national Men’s Shed community and stakeholders for learning\, development and networking. \nOur goals each year are simple\, to continue connecting Men’s & Community Sheds\, shed members and relevant stakeholders with important knowledge\, networks and information to bolster the strength and sustainability of the Men’s Shed movement. \nWe are excited to be joined by the Queensland Men’s Shed Association as co-host and our major partner Fair Dinkum Builds\, to welcome shedders to sunny Brisbane from 24 March to Thursday 26 March 2026 for the 11th AMSA National Men’s Shed Gathering. \nOur theme is centred on the philosophy of “Building Healthy Communities” – recognising the practical\, social and wellbeing benefits Men’s & Community Sheds bring to men\, their families and the wider community. Based at Royal on the Park Hotel & Suites\, our program content will cover three key streams: Shed Development\, Health & Wellbeing and Community Development. \nThe social program will see the return of our highly-regarded ‘Shed Tours’ on Day 1\, which will end with a Welcome Reception and Trade Exhibition in the evening. Day 2 will start with a Shedder’s BBQ Breakfast followed by conferencing. Day 3 will include a second day of conferencing during the day\, with the event concluding in our signature Shedder’s Dinner and National Men’s Shed Awards in the evening. \nWe encourage all sheds to support a member or two to get along to what we know will be another great national event. \nDavid Helmers\nAMSA Executive Officer & Conference Convenor

SUMMARY:Men's Health Week 2025
DESCRIPTION:International Men’s Health Week is held globally each year\, this year 9-15-June. It serves as a vital reminder of the importance of men’s health and encourages communities to support the wellbeing of men and boys. \nThis week goes beyond just physical health—it also shines a light on mental health and emotional wellbeing. It’s a time to address the unique health challenges men face in Australia and around the world\, and to promote activities and habits that can benefit their health all year long. \nWith nationwide events\, campaigns\, and discussions\, Men’s Health Week sparks awareness and encourages action to improve health outcomes for men and boys. \nThis year’s theme is See Your GP \nThis year’s theme — See Your GP— is designed to encourage timely check-ups and preventative care\, with a focus on reducing avoidable illness through early intervention. \nThe Challenge \nTwo-thirds of Australian men put off seeing a doctor when they notice a health issue\, often trying to manage it themselves or waiting until it worsens. This hesitation means missed chances for early intervention — turning small concerns into bigger\, harder-to-treat problems. \nThe Opportunity \nWe have a chance to shift the conversation and change behaviours. By empowering men to take action sooner\, we can help prevent serious health issues before they escalate \nMen’s Health Week Event Packs \nRegistrations open now – packs will be allocated on a first come\, first serve basis (15 available).
