Men’s Shed – Clermont 

 Clermont Men’s Shed aims to provide local information for men in a space where they can spend time engaged in manual crafts such as woodwork, metal work, gardening, restoration and hobbies.

Clermont has an active, ageing and community minded population that lacks suitable support in the overall area of positive mental health (especially within our male population). Based on the well established notion that strong resilient communities are developed through connectedness and interaction, we aim to establish a Men’s Shed with an open door policy that will offer a practical and welcoming environment where people can find social, emotional and physical support, directly or indirectly.

The Clermont Men’s Shed is located at 25 Power House Lane, Clermont.
