About Us
To provide a safe place where men can develop friendships, belong, and be accepted. To improve the physical, emotional, psychological, and spiritual health and wellbeing of men. To reduce the feeling of isolation, particularly for men who have been through major life changes. To build on the existing skills of men and develop new learning, to help men achieve their goals. To create a supportive socially interactive environment where men can openly discuss issues. To provide the opportunity and resources for a range of relevant activities, projects, and programs to meet the diverse needs of men. To seek funding where necessary to meet the objectives of the organisation.

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.
