Thames Menzshed
The Thames Menzshed will open for the new year on Wednesday 15th Jan. Anyone is welcome to come & take a look, meet the guys who will be there to talk to you about what we do & membership.
We are also starting a Womenzshed & will be having an introductory meeting in early Feb to discuss the way the Shed operates & getting the group going who will use the Shed on different days than the men even though we already have lady member. There is already a group of ladies interested & if you send me your email, I can send you the details of the meeting & background rules & governance that we have set up for the men to work in a safe & great fellowship environment.

A Neighbourly Riddle! Don’t Overthink It… Or Do?😜
Do you think you know the answer? Simply 'Like' this post if you know the answer and the big reveal will be posted in the comments at 2pm on the day!
If you multiply this number by any other number, the answer will always be the same. What number is this?
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
50% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
30% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
20% ... It is complicated
Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?
The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.
Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.
We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?
-
9.6% For. Self-service is less frustrating and convenient.
-
43.4% I want to be able to choose.
-
47% Against. I want to deal with people.
