Men's shed Blessed

Last Thursday 8th April the Men's shed at the Kooweerup community hub was blessed by the Reverend Brenda Burney. The service was a very warm and friendly affair and was a celebration for the whole community including those residents of the nursing home and hostel, where the shed and garden (Hub) was identified as a place where it matter none what as to your age, gender, mobility you were made to feel welcome and you could enjoy the space in any which way.
The Community hub can only grow from this and the community is urged to utilsie the space as often as possible.
