Rainbow Vic. Mens Shed Welcome to the page for our Mens' Shed. Our story goes back many years. The current group of Rainbow Vic.

Men's Shed members is merely following on with a program that has been a long time coming. It began in June 2011 with a small group of local men, who had the much appreciated guidance and assistance from Alison Ey, Coordinator of the Rainbow Neighbourhood House. Around 2015 there was a revival in support from our community after a lot of hard work by many parties we officially opened our new "Shed" in 2019. Today we are continuing to support and encourage local men to come along and be a part of our group and participate socially with our members and our community.

This is exactly what Men's Sheds, like ours, are all about.
Helping men, looking after their mental health, giving men a safe space to talk, a space to just be men while helping the community at the same time.
Our shed is strong. Don't judge us by our current location, we have always & will always, be here for the men of this community.

👏 A strong endorsement for the Men's Shed movement!

The Victorian Men's Shed Association has received a powerful endorsement from Dr Mukesh Haikerwal AC, a leading GP with a distinguished record in mental health advocacy, former Board member of Beyond Blue, and current Board Member and acting CEO of Brain Injury Australia.

After reviewing VMSA's independent evaluation report, Dr Haikerwal, described Men's Sheds as offering a safe space that meets a fundamental need, reducing isolation, building self-worth, and delivering real returns for participant health and wellbeing.

Summing it up, he called the program "a shining example of community activity, social cohesion and volunteerism."

Have you thought about joining our growing Mens Shed? Your membership will help us grow into a sustainable Mens Shed for the men of Rainbow in the future.
The Rainbow & District Men's Shed was the dream of one man. He wanted a Shed where men could work together, help the community, a place to assist men's mental health, general wellbeing & a safe space for men to talk openly to other men. This was his dream. He is why we were established in 2018. This is why we are still here.
