We are bunch of blokes who happen to think that doing something together is good for you. We also think that everyone has something to contribute and learn and that the Shed provides a place to do that. Like most men’s sheds we are a not-for-profit association and need to be self supporting, we therefore welcome sponsors and opportunities to contribute to our community. We seek to engage in community projects providing support to a range of different community groups. The well-being of our members is important so we also facilitate access to health promotion seminars and workshops.
MEN'S SHED
WHO ARE WE
THESE ARE OUR VALUES
At the Northern Suburbs Men’s Shed we have a well equipped workshop where the members are responsible for the organisation and direction of the Men’s Shed. Consequently, we encourage participation, ideas and commitment from all members to ensure the Shed can live its mission.
Responsive and Caring
We seek to display kindness and concern for other members. This includes their psychological, physical, spiritual and intellectual needs. We acknowledge that others sometimes need someone else for support.
Cooperative and Collaborating
We like to work together when we can as this is one of our great strengths and assets to achieve shared outcomes. We encourage hearing others opinions and solutions that lead us to common ground.
Honesty with Integrity
It’s not the act of simply telling the truth that makes us honest instead it reflects the quality of the person who is being honest. We consider being straight, upright, sincere and fair builds respect, integrity and character.
Community Connected
We value developing community partnerships where we can express our identity, provide support, encouragement and use our skills, knowledge and experience to encourage positive outcomes.
