“Men’s Sheds are one of our most powerful tools in supporting men in our communities.
“When visiting sheds across Gippsland South I hear stories of the invaluable support Men’s Sheds provide to men of all ages.
“Men’s Shed provide a sense of worth and purpose, giving men an environment where they can connect with friends and remain active.”
