Thank You

Just a note to thank eveyone for your your support over the past 9 years.

I know that we have helped many Men overcome their isolation and depression and have been and will continue to be of assistance to the Community.

It has been my pleasure to have been involved in the setting up of the Gosford Community Mens Shed and seeing the completion of the new Building.

I wish you all the best for the future.

Regards
John Welland.

SHED UPDATE

Well after a long time, we are almost over the Finish Line.
The Ramps and railings ar now complete. The Drainage is finished.
We have now applied to Council for our Final Inspection for our Occupancy Certificate to be issued.
Unfortunately, I have been struck down by the dreaded Shingles and will be out of action for some time.
Larry Lloyd has done a remarkable job throughout the Project and is to be commended for his efforts.
