Tara Sports Shears

Hi everyone, are you interested in helping out sHedspace and supporting mental health in the sheds?
sHedspace is gaining momentum and now needs a team of people for us to take mental health further out to the sheds. I’m looking for people interested in joining the steering committee. If you or someone you know is interested, pls get in touch in the next two weeks for more info.

please send me your email and phone number, and a brief note about why you’re interested in supporting mental health in the sheds, and any experience relevant to joining the committee (no experience necessary, but am looking for a variety of skills to complement each other).
Thanks so much, Carol
Email me: [email protected] or send a msg on here, cheers!

Same great event, same venue, but this year we have changed the name to honour the late, great TONY COOK!!

Come along to compete, or to watch the action and support these amazing athletes 💪🏼

Held at the show so there will be an entry fee but there's also sideshow, food and lots of other entertainment. Be sure to grab your 18+ bracelet at the gate so you can enjoy a beverage from the bar🍻

Hope to see you there😎
