Welcome to the Showgrounds Community Men's Shed 

Click to View our Shed FlyerThe Showgrounds Community Men's Shed provides opportunities for members to work on their own projects, join a team working on Shed activities and tasks, or just share time, recreation and fellowship with other members.  Many of our activities include partners and family, so we celebrate the broader world of men as well as the uniqueness of men together.

New members and anyone interested in who we are and what we do, are very welcome any time we’re open, so feel free to call by the Shed at the Claremont Showgrounds (enter through Gate 8 off Ashton Avenue), and have a chat to us to see how we go about men’s interests and wellbeing.

Our Shed is part of the nation-wide network of Men’s Sheds in Australia and is supported locally by the Men’s Shed of WA (MSWA).  Drop into any Shed and have a look at what we do.

The Shed welcomes requests from the Public to undertake jobs from small repairs to larger woodworking projects for reasonable fees, so bring us your ideas or items that need fixing and see what we can offer.

We hope you find useful information on this website that shows how we support community members in both purpose as men together as well as having fun and recreation to enjoy life to the full.  Please get in touch if you feel we can be part of your lifestyle or undertake tasks that help you in your day to day life.

Woodworking Machinery Induction (Blue Dot) – Phases 1 & 2 All Members who wish to use the woodworking machinery in the Machine Room will need to complete Phase 1 & Phase 2 of the Woodworking Machinery Induction Training. Please Note that Members must have completed the Red Dot course before enrolling in this Blue Dot course? This Course will be conducted in two Phases over two consecutive weeks (9am - 12pm) so you must be able to commit to both sessions before purchasing a ticket. Each Phase will be approximately a three hour duration. There will be a maximum of 3 persons for each Session. The Cost of this course (for both Phases) is $20.  If after booking, for some reason you cannot attend the training, please advise Michael Cahill on 0459062090 as soon as possible, so we can arrange another session for you.  If you cancel or are a “no show” on the day you will lose your $20 fee so please, only book if you can commit to the two consecutive weeks. Payments can be made online by secure credit card.  Once you have completed both phases of the Woodworking Machinery Induction your Membership Badge will be updated to replace the Red Dot with a Blue Dot.  This will reflect that you have completed all the necessary Woodworking Training and are ready to undertake any Woodworking projects in the Shed.
