January illawarra Flame Article - This is the Place

Newly retired? Perhaps made redundant, but still wanting to make a difference in people’s lives? Maybe you want to rejig your life or career and learn a new skill. Or perhaps you’re recovering from an injury or illness.

Or even…… YOU JUST NEED TO GET OUT OF THIS HOUSE! (Did your wife say that? Hhmm???)

Sound familiar, well yes, it would to a lot of our Shed blokes. We come from all walks of life, with different stories, varied skills, and amazing escapes, and…we like it here.

So as this new year begins, in 2024, why don’t you come along to the Men’s Shed and see what we do?

Have you ever wanted to turn something on a lathe? Come on in. Fix up that old chair that was Granddad’s – of course. Learn how to use a drill, a plane, or a welder - this is the place.

And if you want a laugh, and a new supply of jokes, a shoulder to lean on, or a listening ear – this is the place.

Helensburgh Men’s Shed. Ready for you. I’ll get the urn on, and warm the sausage rolls (thanks Arthur, finest kind!)
