Kanturk Men’s Shed attended an awards day for all the sheds who participated in the Sheds For Life Programme which took place in 2023 from September until December. The purpose of this programme is to engage men to successfully
facilitate more open and meaningful discussions around their physical and mental wellbeing while encouraging men to maintain healthier lifestyle choices and increase their awareness in areas such as physical activity, and healthy eating.
They received a few certificates for their efforts in completing the course and even received a certificate for being the most Physically Active Shed! Thank you to the Irish Men’s Sheds Association for facilitating the awards event.
