Westport Men’s Shed Choir

Westport Men’s Shed choir sing ‘Wishing you were here’ and IMSA Assistant CEO Aidan Ó’Gormáin gives the last word to the 2024 conference.

The Power of Connections found and forged in Irish Men’s Sheds form the focus of our conference this year. Men’s Sheds are community spaces which allow men to build a social network and engage in their communities and share skills.

The Men’s Sheds are inherently health promoting due to the sense of meaning, camaraderie and social support offered within them. Our sheds serve the needs of men and the communities in which they are located, and the activities that are undertaken in each shed are as diverse as the men who engage and participate within them.
