Warren MooreHOST
Now, your email is via 2gb.com or 4bc.com.au. And the Men's Shed people have been in touch.
Matt CarrollGUEST
Men's Shed, yeah, the Hawkesbury Men's Shed is having a garage sale today with many wooden products, tools.
Matt CarrollGUEST
They've got a barbecue, tea, coffee.
Matt CarrollGUEST
So they're asking everyone to come across and have a chat to the members who are happy to show around the site and talk about what they do.
Matt CarrollGUEST
So that's happening at Bosworth Street, Richmond, opposite the car wash.
Matt CarrollGUEST
But that'd be a great place to poke around.
Matt CarrollGUEST
I'd love poking around the Men's Shed area.

Siobhán PurcellGUEST
And what we'll have in the Temple Gate will be a selection of those.
Siobhán PurcellGUEST
We'll probably have around 20, 25. showcasing all the different sizes what's happening on the ground the different work that's being done what's on offer so we'll have everything from the community halls to like the national men's shed association as a social enterprise a lot of the men's sheds aren't run as social enterprises but you know they can if they want they could be selling things to to to gain the money so it'll be a selection of what's there and i suppose we what we want is we want people to see what's happening um there's always in a lot of them would be volunteer opportunities or opportunities to support, get involved.
Siobhán PurcellGUEST
We're hoping that we've invited some of the schools to come along, maybe bring their TYs or some of their business classes to come in and see, because they'll be the future social entrepreneurs.
Siobhán PurcellGUEST
And then just like the general public to maybe like to support, maybe somebody has an idea for social enterprise.
