13.01.2022 HMS volunteers will be at the Port container drop off point (Port Hedland Turf Club) from 8 to 10 am tomorrow. Help us help you by: 1.

Taking large volumes of containers to Wedgefield (we will only have 3 volunteers on hand and the max we can accept is 800 containers). Sticking to the above will help us sort your trash in a flash.

07.01.2022 *A DONATION WITH BYTE AND AN EXCITING ANNOUNCEMENT* Firstly, we want to say a MASSIVE thanks to Matt Herwig (second from left) and his son Brandon (third from left) from Charity Begins @ Home PC, who have refurbished and donated this epic high-powered PC to The Hedland Mens Shed. Matt runs Charity Begins @ Home PC, a charity organisation that rebuilds and gifts old computers to people unable to afford them, with Brandon helping his old man out with the rebuilds what a coup...le of legends!! The Hedland Mens Shed Committee thought we would use this opportunity as a teaser for the soon-to-be-revealed location of the Hedland Mens Shed. Check out the view from our future BBQ area! Its been a long road, but we are super close. We are currently working through the approvals/administration and hope to have the keys before the end of the year. IMPORTANTLY FOR EXISTING AND PROPSECTIVE MEMBERS, the shed spaces will be a blank canvas so if you want to contribute to what they look like, now is the perfect time to sign up. Your ideas and skills will be invaluable with assisting with the development of a great mens shed for the Hedland community. If you would like to be a member, send us a PM via our FB page with your details including email address and we will send you out a membership form. Stay tuned for updates from the committee exciting times ahead!! Cheers, The HMS Committee.

Come for the fitness and stay for a snag and chat! -------------------------------------------------------------------- Its the perfect time to be outdoors in the Pilbara so why not come together for a FREE outdoor fitness session during Mens Health Week.
