Community Update October 2024

Welcome to our October Community Update.

Baldivis has so many opportunities for community involvement. Here we will highlight a couple of local organisations where you can meet neighbours and do great things both for each other and for the broader community. Two of the superstar organisations are the Baldivis and Districts Community Men’s Shed and the CWA Baldivis Belles.

Baldivis and Districts Community Men’s Shed

Did you know that there are more than 1,200 Men’s Sheds in Australia (more buildings than McDonalds!) Baldivis and Districts Community Men’s Shed was started in the early 1990’s in the interest of improving health and well-being outcomes for participants. By fostering a sense of community among our members, they help to combat social isolation and promote a sense of purpose and fulfillment.

Current location: 461 Sixty Eight Road, Baldivis

CWA Baldivis Belles

Established on 22nd July 2016, CWA Baldivis Belles is an evening/weekend branch of the Country Women’s Association of WA. They have fun, build friendships, learn new skills and help the community. They are a sensational group of all ages, interests and backgrounds. Here are their meeting, social and sewing events until the end of the year and you can find out more on their Facebook page here.
