Men's Health Week is an important occasion dedicated to raising awareness about the health and wellbeing of men.
This year, International Towers is partnering with Men's Shed to host a series of engaging activities aimed at promoting physical and mental health, culminating in a special Cuppa Session with Barry Du Bois and Stuart Torrance from Men's Shed.
Build and Connect
One of the highlights of Men's Health Week will be two build and connect sessions held at the towers. During these sessions, members of the Men's Shed will assemble a pre-fabricated cubby house, which will then be donated to a different charity each day. This initiative not only provides a fun and interactive way to engage with the community but also supports various charitable organisations.
We encourage everyone to drop in, meet the talented team from Men's Shed, and ask any questions they may have. It's a great opportunity to relax, socialise, and contribute to a good cause.
- Tuesday: 10am - 2pm
- Wednesday: 10am - 2pm
- Thursday: 10am - 12pm
Special Cuppa Session with Barry Du Bois and Stuart Torrance
The week will culminate in a special Cuppa Session on Thursday from 12:30 PM to 1:15 PM, featuring Barry Du Bois and Stuart Torrance from Men's Shed. This session promises to be both inspiring and informative, offering attendees the chance to engage with these prominent figures who advocate for men's health and well-being.
