Strathfield Mens Shed provides a facility that empowers men of all ages to socialise and do things in a practical way. Participation is encouraged to develop good self-esteem, respect for each other and to support our local community projects.
Members may learn and share skills such as woodworking, wood turning, metalwork and other hand crafts, all in a safe manner.
Mens Sheds are places of encouragement for all to take an interest in their own health and well-being. Good health, with a very big emphasis on mental health, is also based on many factors and becoming a member of a Mens Shed gives a person that safe and busy environment where many of these things can be found in an atmosphere of old-fashioned mateship and, importantly, there is no pressure.
You can just come and have a yarn and a cuppa if that is all you’re looking for.
Members come from all walks of life – the bond that unites them is often they are people with time on their hands and who would like to do something meaningful with that time.
If a man’s shed is his castle, then the Strathfield Mens Shed is his kingdom. If you would like to share your skills or just to have a chat, then drop by.
All visitors are welcome.
We are normally open Wednesday and Saturdays 10am – 4pm.
The modern Mens Shed is an updated version of the shed in the backyard that has long been a part of Australian culture.
