As men age there is a real and significant risk of an increase in social isolation. Increasing social isolation results in negative health outcomes for those men, both physical and psychological. This is a problem for our community, as it is for others, and the establishment of a Men’s Shed is a health initiative that takes a positive step towards addressing this problem. A Men's Shed is a community based, non-profit, non-commercial organisation that is accessible to all men over 18 and whose primary activity enable men to connect with each other in a safe and friendly environment.

The project will benefit the community through improved health outcomes, both mental and physical, for men in our community.
