ELLENBROOK Men’s Shed received $20,000 in funding to improve facilities.
The funding, which was an election commitment by Labor MP Jessica Shaw, was presented last Friday as part of their program to boost local projects and employment.
The funding will provide new equipment, extra work space, new security and safety measures, and help grow the membership base for the shed.
