More funding for men’s sheds
The Department of Health is providing funding to 90 Men’s Sheds across the country to support the mental health and overall wellbeing of Australian men.
Men’s Sheds will receive grants totalling $395,000 under round 16 of the National Shed Development Programme to help them buy tools, maintain sheds and host community activities focused on men’s health issues.
Men’s Sheds are helping Australian men to stay healthy and strong in every way.
The Men’s Shed movement has now become one of the most powerful tools in addressing health and wellbeing and helping men to once again become valued and productive members of our community.
Feeling part of a social group is important to our emotional and mental health and every day Men’s Sheds provide men with an opportunity for companionship.
Do you belong to a Men’s Shed group? Would you encourage other to join?
I was once told by a person passing by on the walkway when i was carry out a repair on the auto gate unit which was not working in front of my house. Then i told him i was a retire licence sparkie and this it,s my own auto gate unit so what wrong.
That why i don,t want to help out unless i know them well and they are not going to report me.
