Men's Health

The Australian Men's Shed Association has some great articles on Men's Health, which we recommend to all visitors. They also have a Health and Lifestyle page where you can assess your health and learn about other issues.

The government has a Men's Health site which also is of interest to members and visitors alike and is well worth a look.

The Shed Online is an online social community for men, founded by "beyondblue": the national depression initiative, The Movember Foundation and the Australian Men's Shed Association.

Redland City Council is the local government authority, within which our Men's Shed is located. They have supported our shed and you can find out more about them by visiting the RCC web page.
