Members of the Hume Men’s Shed have been hard at work lately, coming together to build, repair and create new items.
The men’s shed is located at the rear of Sunbury Cobaw Community Health and operates on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday from 8.30am to noon.
Men’s shed secretary Albert Achterberg spoke to the Star Weekly before the shed’s biannual garage sale in August, and said the group is a good meeting place for men from all walks of life.
“We’re all a group of fellas who like to build, repair and sit down together and enjoy a cuppa… it’s an escape and good for [everyone’s] mental health,” he said.
The shed offers a range of handcrafted items for sale in the Shed Shop, which is adjacent to the reception area of Sunbury Cobaw Community Health.
They can also repair a range of timber items, anyone with enquiries can call and speak to a shed member to see what can be done.
