WESTERN Port Men’s Shed is back in business in Bittern.

After a long break due to COVID restrictions, president Colin Prowd said there was a need for a friendly, social outlet for men, where they could get involved in meaningful projects.

Mr Prowd said some men were reluctant to get back out into the community after COVID, as were many in the community, and numbers were down at men’s sheds across the country.

“We lost about eight members who have not come back after COVID restrictions ended, so we’d love to let men know that they are welcome to join us, there is always something to do or someone to chat to,” he said.

“We’d also love to let the schools and community know that we are ready to take on more projects, and would love to hear from them.”
