Sheds for Life Awards
The Sheds for Life Awards, fondly known as the “Sheddies” were held inTipperary and Wexford last week. We have a selection of pictures from the awards as well as a slideshow from last years programme.
Sheds for Life is the IMSA Flagship Health & Wellbeing programme, run over ten weeks. The aim of the programme is to improve the mental and physical health of shedders, and to give men tools which can help improve their wellbeing. Sheds for Life covers key areas that aim to enhance physical, mental and social wellbeing. The ten-weeks kick off with a health check where men are offered a free, private health screening by a qualified nurse. Over the ten weeks men are invited to take part in core modules covering physical activity, healthy cooking and mental health. The sheds are also offered additional choices from a range of ‘Let’s talk About’ workshops which cover topics including men’s cancer, dementia, diabetes, eye & ear health, and teeth & mouth health. Sheds for Life gives participants a chance to take part in discussions and practical workshops in a social and informal way, in the company of other shedders in the familiar and convenient environment of the shed.
A big shout out to all the shedders who took part and huge thanks to all of our partners and sponsors who make the programme possible.
