"Men don't talk face to face. They talk shoulder to shoulder."
The Mossman Men’s Shed welcomes men, of all ages, and of all abilities.
Our vision is for men in our community to :
remain socially active, and enjoy the company of like-minded men
share and develop skills, particularly in manual labour such as woodwork, metalwork, maintenance skills and restoration
provide a safe, friendly and nurturing environment in which to do so
experience satisfaction from the completion of community projects
mentor youth from our community
participate in fundraising activities
ensure and observe safe work practices
We encourage values of compassion, empathy, positive support and encouragement regardless of ability.
The benefits of the Men’s Shed project include:
mateship and encouragement
hands-on activities
sharing of experiences
learning and development of new skills
The Mossman Men’s Shed attracts a diverse range of men of all abilities and ages, offering a similarly diverse range of projects.
The MMS is a member of the national body, Australian Mens Shed Association.
