We are down at the a&p show today and tomorrow with our team of helpers at the wood chopping, doing rubbish removal and this year we have a stall selling items produced by our talented members. Call in and say hi if you get the chance.

💙 A huge thank you to our members who joined us today at our Blue September BBQ! 💙

It was fantastic to see our community come together — sharing food and support for a cause that touches so many Kiwi men and their families.

Every dollar raised goes to the Prostate Cancer Foundation of NZ, helping fund research, awareness campaigns, and support services.

If you couldn’t make it but would still like to chip in, you can donate directly through our page here:

🔵 Menzshed Waimea Supports Blue September 🔵

This September, we’re joining sheds and communities across New Zealand to raise awareness and funds for prostate cancer – the most common cancer affecting Kiwi men.

💙 Every year, around 4,000 men are diagnosed and more than 700 die from this disease. Early detection can save lives, which is why raising awareness is so important.

By supporting Blue September, you’re helping fund vital research, support services, and education programmes run by the Prostate Cancer Foundation of New Zealand.

We’d love your support – together we can make a difference for men’s health:

Let’s stand together this Blue September and help more Kiwi men get the support they need. 💪💙

We were recently asked to help with set construction for Nelson Girls College’s upcoming production of 12 Angry Women. (A members granddaughter is involved in the show!)

Graham F made great use of some pre-loved boards we had tucked away, framing them up nicely, and Dave stepped in to give them a fresh coat of paint. Always good to see shed resources supporting local arts!

Great work by some of our team helping with the set

A well-deserved standing ovation for our Nelson Repertory Theatre production tonight of My Fair Lady at our treasured Theatre Royal. Nelson’s creative sector at its finest!

Loved seeing standout performances from familiar faces like Mike Ward, Breffni O’Rourke, Peter Verstappen and Olivia Newton - Cr Pete Rainey looked way too comfortable playing King 🤣. Congrats to full cast, crew, sponsors and Menzshed Waimea team for the set.

Not to be missed and tickets are still available for shows on Friday and Saturday.
