Our Story
A Men’s Shed provides a place for men to talk and contribute to their local community when they have retired, where practical skills and knowledge can be shared.
All Sheds are different. Some like to do woodwork, whereas others can be more outgoing and like to contribute their time to helping the local community. Whatever your Shed does, the Shed experience will improve your wellbeing by keeping physically, mentally and socially active.
Men’s Sheds of WA supports over 180 Men’s Sheds throughout the state of Western Australia, ranging from Albany in the south to Broome in the north. Men’s Sheds play an incredibly important role in the WA community.
We’re here to:
- foster the development and sustainability of Men’s Sheds in Western Australia.
- advocate on behalf of Sheds to government, private, and community sector organisations.
- provide opportunities for bringing Sheds together to share and learn.
We exist only through the efforts and commitment of volunteers from Sheds around WA, along with the support and funding from the Department of Communities and Lotterywest.
