Ben's Shed is a recent social support group initiated by EACH and the local Yarra Junction community that operates on an informal basis Monday to Friday for a varied age group of men who require a low level of support whilst participating in the group.

The Shed has provided an opportunity for those men who have retired from the workforce; men who previously enjoyed spending time in their sheds that are no longer available to them; and men disadvantaged through illness or injury that have led to the onset of depression and isolation.

Ben’s Shed provides a place for the blokes in the community to share a yarn, meet others, make new friends to socialise with, relax and have a laugh while sharing skills and ideas.
