A MAN'S SHED
They say every good man has a shed in the back yard!
The Aussie Over 50's Guide!
So you are a man, or your man has a little time on his hands, maybe retired or just looking for ways to remain in touch with other people
or with life in general. You might be good with your hands or a tradesman of some kind in your past life?
Most people that come to this website are looking for something to DO! Or find out what others are doing and of course there are lots of things to join, Rotary,
Lions, Apex, clubs go play lawn bowls, but those things don't suit everyone.
If you don't know or you have not heard about The Australian Men Shed Association
This is a group or men and women that have gather together to promote a movement that was established in 2007. The idea came from the shed most men have
in the backyard.
The Men's Shed has long been an Australian tradition, almost a culture! A place for the man to go play work or just fiddle around or just have a beer with
the boys. The Australian Men Shed Association currently has some 400 Member sheds representing something like 30,000 men across Australia. In fact the AMSA is the
largest men's support organisation in the country.
They do have an official website www.mensshed.org They offer a regular newsletter, news of current events and access
to the discussion forum.
It should be noted that Men's Sheds are springing up all around Australia. You might in a position to assist is setting up a shed or just wish to join.
The flowing is a few waords taken from the About us page on the Official AMSM website:-
"If you looked inside one you might see a number of men restoring furniture, perhaps restoring bicycles for a local school, maybe making Mynah bird traps or fixing
lawn mowers or making a kids cubby house for Camp Quality to raffle. You might also see a few young men working with the older men learning new skills and maybe also
learning something about life from the men they work with. You will see tea-bags, coffee cups and a comfortable area where men can sit and talk. You will probably
also see an area where men can learn to cook for themselves or they can learn how to contact their families by computer.
It should be noted that the AMSA is a not for profit organisation and they are a registered Health Promotion Charity and are endorsed as a Tax Deductible
Gift Recipient. Donations are tax deductible.
