Our Men's Shed was formed on Thursday 23 June 2011 when about 50 people gathered in the Committee Rooms at Port Stephens Council administration building. Our initial Constitution was adopted and our first Board members were elected. On 28 October 2011 some minor changes to the Constitution were adopted to meet the requirements of the ATO and to bring it in line with the Dept of Fair Trading. At this time a change in management structure was adopted changing from a Management Board to a Management Committee. For more details see our History page. On 4 August 2012 our "First Shed" was formally opened by Cr. Glenys Francis and a successful Open Day was held.

We started as a steering committe in November 2008 having identified a need for a Men's Shed in the area. After a lot of hard work the Shed was officially opened in February 2011 The name relates to the area postcode of 2322 and that is the area we encompass. The Shed was established with the aim of providing men with a place to be productive, establish new relationships and even just somewhere to have a cup of tea and a chat with someone. Newcastle City Council have allowed us to occupy what was formerly the local tennis club at Beresfield. The premises are not ideal for our purposes but surprisingly we manage to create items for the local community when we are asked to. Not having a dedicated shed limits our ability to make multiple items for sale and this is where we are missing out on an income stream.

Hunter Care Group was the brainchild of our CEO Jarrod Burns. Having worked in the disability support industry for years, he was frustrated by seeing both clients and staff treated poorly – and he set out to change things for the better for everyone. Today, we’re a young, energetic, fresh-thinking team of mental health and disability support specialists on a mission to shake up the industry. We want participants to live life as comfortably and proactively as possible and staff to be happy in their work. We’re currently one of the largest NDIS providers in the Hunter region – with the potential to grow nationwide. However, expansion will only happen when we’re 100% confident we can still deliver the same high level of reliable, consistent and individualised support.
