Gladstone Men’s Shed Assoc Inc. has been established in Gladstone for 13 years now and is affiliated with both the Australian Men’s Shed Association and the Queensland Men’s Shed Association.  Our large buildings at 18 Moura Crs, Barney Point, are well-equipped with metal and woodworking facilities, electrical, furniture restoration and technology activities.  An exercise group have an enjoyable routine on Friday mornings and the equipment is now available to help us keep in shape on other shed days too.

The shed is open Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday mornings from 8am to 12noon for workshop activities and open for light exercises on Friday mornings 8am to 9am with time for a cuppa afterwards.  Our last shed day for 2025 is 11th December until reopening 13th January.

Recent News:  

The Gladstone Men’s Shed is now closed until January 13 for a short break after enjoying a great year of activities, camaraderie and community support throughout 2025.  The new year will start in similar fashion with news that the GPC Community Benefit Program has granted us $2,500 to continue our Early Childhood Services Project to donate items made in the Shed to all the kindergartens and preschools in the region.

We have also got GLNG coming in to thank them for their donation on Men’s Health Day in 2025 followed by the Council coming to talk to us about waste disposal particularly batteries.  Then we will be looking for volunteers to provide a sausage sizzle at the Australia Day celebrations, thanks again to the GRC for offering us this great fundraiser.

Interesting projects to complete in the new year include the Jurassic Park cubby house for C&K Clinton and the mini golf courses for QGC.  Supplies and workbench for leadlighting sponsored by GRC will be set up and the 3D scanner obtained on a grant from Powerlink will arrive.  After all that activity all we can say is Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all.
