The Town of Bassendean is proud to launch Women In The Workshop, a hands-on workshop series designed to empower local women with practical skills in a welcoming and supportive environment. These workshops will be part of our RElax Program.

Facilitated by The Joy of Wood and hosted at the Bassendean Community Men’s Shed, these workshops offer an opportunity for women to learn new skills, build confidence, and connect with others in the community. Whether you're picking up tools for the first time or looking to refine your abilities, Women In The Workshop provides a space to learn, create, and grow.

These workshops are exclusively available to female residents of the Town of Bassendean aged 18 and over.
