Mensheds Australia is a not-for-profit Australian organisation dedicated as the peak body, to resourcing and supporting Men's Sheds. The growing problems with men's health, isolation, loneliness and depression are now looming as major health issues in Australia.


Men’s Sheds can play a significant and practical role in addressing these and other men’s issues and at the same time act as a catalyst in stimulating their community's economic activities.
