About our shed
About Us
Have been operating for approximately 7/8 years at Pound rd colac. We are currently in the process of moving to a new facility at the Colac Showgrounds at Gate 2 Chapel St, Colac. We anticipate having our certificate of occupancy in the coming week, and hope to be in residence by new year 2017. We currently have 22 members. We are now in residence at our new facility and are making many and varied items from the old flooring from the rec centre. Also making planter boxes of various sizes from donated timber. Our 2 post hoist is in situ so those who have the ability can service their own vehicles.

Positive impacts
The Australian Men’s Shed Association (AMSA) is the national service provider supporting more than 1,200 Men’s, Women’s and Community Sheds and is recognised as one of Australia’s largest male-based community development organisations.
AMSA was established in 2007 by a collection of Australian independent community-based Men’s Sheds to represent, support and promote the Men’s Shed movement. It was founded on the principle of sharing information between sheds and those communities wishing to establish and operate a Men’s Shed. It acts as a central hub for information exchange.
