About our shed

About Us

Mens Shed Narellan is an Incorporation Association registered with NSW Fair Trading and is a Registered Charity with the ACNC. It was officially opened in October 2013 and was initially constructed as a Community Project by the Rotary club of Narellan Inc.

Membership is open to males over 18 years old and membership fees include a Joining Fee and an Annual Fee (reducing each quarter depending on when you join – fees are subject to annual review and may change).

The shed offers a range of activities for men to gather in a supportive environment to undertake woodworking, metalworking, welding, lapidary, or just have a coffee and chat. Members can undertake individual or group projects for themselves or community organisations, such as, pre-schools, schools, community organisations and local Council, as well as small repair jobs for local residents

We focus on supporting men’s mental health and well-being, arrange speakers on topics of interest such as aged care, fall prevention, household fire safety and mental health support.

We encourage our members to enjoy the company and support of other men who “talk shoulder to shoulder” as is the motto of the Australian Mens Shed Association (AMSA) and this in turn engenders friendship and mateship.

Any enquiries about our activities, membership or other matters can be addressed to our email address on our: home page.

Positive impacts

Camaraderie

"I've found a great group of mates"

Mateship is an important pillar of every Men’s Shed – first and foremost the shed is a place for men to knock about with a group of like-minded mates.

Community

“I give back to the community”

Men’s Sheds are vital community investments delivering programmes and activities that foster community spirit and contribute to building a more inclusive Australia.

Health & Wellbeing

“My health and wellbeing is better because I'm a Shedder”

Many shedders experience improved mental health outcomes. Men (and women) involved at their local Shed report increased self-esteem through participation and learning new skills; de-stigmatisation of experiencing mental health and de-stigmatisation of prevalent social issues related to mental health.

Watch — More than just a shed

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.
