Shedder's Wellbeing Workshop - Mallala, SA

Men’s Sheds have always had a justifiable reputation for helping men at different stages of their lives, whether it is looking after member’s physical, mental or social wellbeing. To put it simply, shedders look out for their mates - even if they can no longer get down to the Shed.

In 2021 AMSA received funding from Black Dog Ride to help us develop and roll out our Shed Mates initiative. This shedder wellbeing initiative provides Men’s Sheds with a framework that includes resources and training to either initiate and/or continue the ongoing support for member wellbeing, the strategies have been gathered from Sheds across Australia that focus on the improved mental wellbeing and health outcomes of their members.

We have teamed up with Mallala & District Men’s Shed to host a Shedder’s Wellbeing Workshop. The program is a great opportunity to get you actively thinking about how your Men’s Shed supports members’ wellbeing, as well as networking with other Shed members from your region. We encourage your Shed to send a few members along.
