MEMBER for Murray Plains Peter Walsh is encouraging the men’s sheds to apply for grants that support to establish, expand, or refurbish existing sheds across the state.
Mr Walsh said each shed can apply for grants of as much as $80,000, which would be a welcome boost to carry out works to improve, build, or extend facilities in their towns.
He said men’s sheds play an important role in our community, building on mateship and connectivity to improve social and mental health outcomes for the male participants.
“They offer a safe and productive place where men can get together, work on common and shared projects and form friendships while giving back to their community,” Mr Walsh added.
