About our shed
About Us
The Men’s Shed is a fun and engaging way for men to come together to do a range of activities, and share and develop new skills.
Please note: We are currently refurbishing our Men’s Shed, so many activities are not available. However, we are still supporting participants with other social connection activities. We hope you can join us.
Some of our most popular activities include:
- Woodwork.
- Bike building and repairs.
- Gardening.
- Playing pool, darts and bocce.
- Using computers and the internet.
For $5 per day (payable on attendance) you can come and join us at the Men’s Shed at our East Reservoir Health Centre. Lunch, morning and afternoon tea is included.
The Men’s Shed is open Monday to Friday.

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.
