Lalor Men’s Shed opens its doors

The Lalor and District Men’s Shed is inviting the community to join in the fun at its open day on Saturday 29 November, between 10am and 3pm, at 34 Robert Street, Lalor.

The event promises to be a day of family-friendly activities, showcasing the creativity and craftsmanship that takes place inside Lalor’s shed.

Visitors are offered the opportunity to take a glance at the shed’s large variety of handmade items, including wooden and metalwork creations, indoor plants, seedlings, and unique Christmas gifts, all made by members of the shed.

Kids big and small will also have plenty to look forward to, with the day dedicated to celebrating community spirit, connection and creativity.

The Lalor and District Men’s Shed aims to provide a welcoming space for men 18 and older, with inclusion for women interested in learning more, to come together, share skills and stories, make new friends and work on projects for the local community and beyond.

Lalor Men’s Shed president Merv Landy said the open day will give locals a glimpse into the shed’s important role in supporting wellbeing and social connection.

“Make this a great family day at your local Men’s Shed,” Mr Landy said.

“Come along, meet the members and see what your local shed is all about. Try a snag from our barbecue sausage sizzle, have a tea or coffee in our rec room, or enjoy a seat at a table in our green room nursery. ”
