Helping Men thrive in their sheds

Brisbane City Council will help fund setting up of 5 Men’s Shed programs in Brisbane to tackle isolation, loneliness and depression among men
A grant will provide up to $20,000 for set up costs.
Isolation among men was an increasingly concerning health issue across Australia.
A shed provides an alternative to the pub as a space to build things, make friends, share experiences and feel part of the community.
