The new round of grant funding is set to go towards a variety of upgrades, such as:
State Member for Euroa Annabelle Cleeland said men’s sheds played an important role in regional communities and she encouraged local sheds to apply for the grants.
“There’s tremendous work being done in men’s sheds across the region,” Ms Cleeland said.
“They create safe and inclusive spaces where men can come together, foster social connections and actively participate in their communities.”
Having met with several men’s sheds members, Ms Cleeland said many of the region’s groups would greatly benefit from additional funding through the grants.
“Meeting with our men’s sheds across the electorate, I have seen first-hand the wonderful benefit they provide to not only their members, but also to the broader community,” she said.
“I am also well aware that many groups have changing circumstances, have a need to expand, or require urgent repairs to help facilitate their programs.
“This funding round is a fantastic opportunity to build on vital existing programs or create new and improved ones that will benefit our community.”
Applications close on July 17.
