Men’s Shed giving back

The Tullamarine Men’s Shed has completed a major project giving back to the community, with more than 80 wildlife rescue boxes built and donated.

After months of laboUr, the boxes were handed over to the Amaroo Wildlife Shelter last week, a volunteer organisation that runs out of a home in Eastern Victoria.

They rescue and treat all different types of Australian wildlife, and the extra materials will help them to continue saving lives of native animals.

The Men’s Shed operates out of the Tullamarine Community House and offers programs and community activities for all members of the community in Tullamarine and surrounding areas.

It is a great space to meet existing friends and make new ones, with mental and physical health at the forefront of every activity the group completes.

Every Monday between 10am and NOON the group cooks and eats lunch together, they have a community garden which is worked on every Thursday, and a computer and IT group on Fridays.

To get involved email irene@tullamarinehouse.org or call 9338 9072
