About our shed

About Us

We are a social group of chaps who like to build and repair and make for fun and profit. We enjoy the recycling of old furniture etc into useable goods. We have an active metalworking shop and are moving into laser engraving as well as a small cnc type machine. We can actively help men get into the world of the internet and computer useage.

We have recently recommenced our regular trips away to places of interest and will continue this as long as we are able. We host guest speakers from time to time of topics of interest to our members, generally health and related fields but we include fun topics as well.

We attend markets and info events as often as invited to help get the word out about our shed.

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.
