Located on the corner of Wallmah Close and Wood Street, Wallmah Reserve is prominently located, with a group of large Pine trees defining its landscape character. Given the topography and table drain on Wood Street, the accessibility of the Reserve is quite limited.

Ruffey Creek Linear Park is located 100 metres away to the west. Wombat Bend playspace is located 500 metres away to the north-west, while the proposed Swilk Reserve playspace will be located 400 metres away to the south-east.

This reserve has very low priority for further development. Improved accessibility and landscape management are the key actions. A more substantial upgrade may wait until the Pine trees have reached the end of their useful life.

Laughter

Did we mention food and laughter?
And hear what is happening in your community to prioritise men’s health, not just in Men’s Health Week but all year round.

Hear from The Men’s Table, a men’s peer support group that meets at The Grand Hotel over dinner once a month to share openly about their lives, their challenges, their highs and lows with a group of like-minded men.

No membership fee, just the cost of your meal each month.

This event is proudly supported by Manningham City Council and Aquarena Aquatic and Leisure Centre.

About the Men's Table

The Men’s Table creates a unique environment for men to share openly about their lives with other men.

The Men’s Table creates a sense of belonging, community, peer support and camaraderie that is lacking for many men, even for some who already have a group of mates.

The Men’s Table began in 2011 with 12 men who have met once a month for dinner and has since become a national charity and grown to 59 tables across Australia.

This evening will give you an insight into what it is like to be part of a Men’s Table and how it benefits the community as a whole. We’ll also provide details on how to join a Men’s Table for those men interested in joining.
