NEWS FLASH: Day retreat on the 20th October as part of Queensland Mental Health Week. At the Women's Shed we see ourselves as a place where women can get away from work and home and pursue other interests. This is why the theme of our day retreat is 'take time for yourself'. Members and non-members are invited to join us for a day of fun activities which will give you tools and strategies for looking after yourself, as well as a the treat of a day just for you. We are really excited about our guest speakers:

The Coolum Women's shed is a space for women to connect through shared interests. We are a non profit organisation run by volunteers. Our members organise a wide variety of activities including arts, crafts, health and wellness. We aim to keep activity prices low so that women can participate on a frequent basis. Our members run groups based on their interests, and we also run taught 'workshops' that cover skills we want to learn.
We do not have our own building yet, and hire the Community Centre at Research Street, Coolum.
During the lockdown for COVID-19 we had the opportunity to work on our online offerings. We have had women attend our workshops that could never have attended in person. We intend to continue to offer online activities so that we are able to reach women who do not live in the local area, or can't make it to the shed. We also have a members only area of our website which includes 'catch up ' recordings or videos.
Whether we see you online or in person, we look forward to seeing you soon :-)
