Hello to all our wonderful supporters and members! It’s been a bustling couple of months here at Hervey Bay Women’s Shed Inc., and we are thrilled to share some fantastic updates and achievements with you.
Firstly, we are delighted to announce our move into the Neighborhood Hive, a vibrant community hub that has welcomed us with open arms. This exciting transition was made possible thanks to the Hervey Bay Neighborhood Centre‘s generous offer of a peppercorn lease. We now have our own dedicated space within the Hive, which not only allows us to conduct our workshops and gatherings more comfortably but also gives us the opportunity to add much-needed storage for our tools and materials.
Our new home has been buzzing with activity! If you check out our latest posts on Facebook and TikTok, you’ll see we’ve hosted a series of inspiring and hands-on events. These have ranged from basic carpentry and upcycling info sessions to creative arts and crafts workshops. Each event has been a wonderful opportunity for women in our community to connect, learn, and share their skills in a supportive environment.
We are also thrilled to share that we have installed two new garden sheds, thanks to the generous funding donations from Adrian Tantari MP and Cr Lachlan Cosgrove. These sheds have been a much-needed addition to our facility, providing us with essential space to store our growing collection of equipment and supplies.
With this added storage, we are better equipped to organize our resources and ensure that our members have easy access to everything they need for their projects. The addition of these garden sheds not only enhances our operational efficiency but also underscores the strength and support of our community. It is heartwarming to witness such generosity, and we are incredibly grateful to Adrian and Lachlan for their contributions.
As we settle into our new space, we are filled with excitement for the future. HBWS is committed to empowering women through skill development and creativity, and our new home at the Neighborhood Hive represents a significant step forward in achieving that mission.
Thank you to everyone who has supported us on this journey. We look forward to continuing to grow and create together. Stay tuned for more updates and upcoming events by following us on our social media platforms below!
Warm regards,
The Hervey Bay Women’s Shed Inc. Team
