Support for Men’s Sheds to be trebled

Volunteers are being sought to support Men’s Sheds in parts of Co Cork in a bid to effectively treble the level of support for the movement locally.

The Irish Men’s Shed Association (IMSA) says it is actively seeking volunteers to act as information, contact, and support points to local Men’s Sheds, one each for the West Cork and East Cork regions.

The Cork region accounts for almost 40 of the country’s 400-plus Men’s Sheds, the community-based, non-commercial organisations open to men where the primary aim is the provision of a safe, friendly, and inclusive environment where men can gather and work on projects.
