A good mate can make all the difference.

Someone to share a laugh with, check in on you after a tough week, celebrate the wins or simply be there when life gets a bit heavy.

But the reality is, not everyone has that person.

If you're feeling disconnected, know that it's never too late to build new friendships. Sometimes it starts with taking that first step—joining a men's circle, a walking group, the Men's Shed, a sporting club, or volunteer.

Connection is one of the most powerful things we can give ourselves and each other.

At Bob's Garage, that's exactly what we're here for. Whether you're looking for support, a conversation or just somewhere to belong, the door is always open.

This International Friendship Day, check in with a mate... or take the first step towards making a new one.

Because no bloke should have to do life alone. 💙

A huge thank you to Brad and the team at Darkside Kings Clothing for recently hosting their Car & Bike Show, bringing the Gladstone community together to raise funds and awareness for men's mental health.

The event supported several local organisations making a real difference, including Bob's Garage, Gladstone Men's Shed and Young Veterans Gladstone—all working to strengthen the wellbeing and connection of people in our region.

We're incredibly grateful to receive a donation from the event, which will go directly towards helping us continue providing free and low-cost counselling, men's circles and community support for local men and their families.

Events like these remind us that improving men's wellbeing isn't something any one organisation can do alone. It takes a community that cares, people who are willing to start conversations, and businesses, clubs and volunteers who step up to make a difference.

Thank you, Brad and the Darkside Kings crew, for your passion, generosity and commitment to supporting the Gladstone community. We're proud to partner with you and look forward to continuing to work together to create stronger, healthier and more connected communities.

Life throws a lot at all of us.

Work pressures. Family. Relationships. Finances. Health.
The everyday stuff that sometimes gets in the way.

Bob’s Garage was built as a place where blokes can pull up, have a chat and connect with support before things become too much.

Whether it’s a coffee and conversation, joining a walk, coming along to a Pit Stop circle, or sitting down with one of our counsellors — there’s no wrong way to start.

🔧 Counselling & wellbeing support
🔧 Men’s circles
🔧 Walking groups
🔧 Connection with practical life support services
🔧 Support around family, finances, health, legal matters and more

Free professional counselling sessions are available, with the option to give back where you can to help another bloke through the door.

No judgement. No pressure.
Just real people, real conversations and real support.

Sometimes the smallest step can make the biggest difference.

Pit Stop Men's Circle – Tonight at Bob's Garage

Sometimes the hardest part is simply turning up.

If you've been thinking about coming along, consider this your invitation.

Tonight we'll be firing up the BBQ, sharing a feed and creating a space for good blokes to connect, have a chat and take a break from the pressures of everyday life.

You don't need to be struggling.
You don't need to have something wrong.
You don't need to talk if you don't want to.

Just come as you are.

🚶 Why not start with the Walking 4 Warriors mens walk at 5:30pm?
It's a great way to break down the barrier, meet a few people and ease into the evening.

Then stick around for:
A BBQ
A seat around the fire pit
Good conversation
Real connection

Whether life's going great, you're carrying a bit more than usual, or you're simply looking to meet some good people in the community, there's a seat for you.

📅 Tonight
Walking 4 Warriors – 5:30pm
Pit Stop Men's Circle – Following the walk
Bob's Garage, 10 William Street, Gladstone

No pressure. No judgement. Just good blokes, good conversation and support when you need it.

No judgement.
Real conversations.
Stronger together.

If you've been thinking about checking us out, consider this your invitation.

Drop in. Join a walk. Pull up a chair around the firepit. Have a coffee.

Diabetes doesn't always come with obvious warning signs.

Many men continue to push through fatigue, weight changes or health concerns without seeking advice.

Looking after your physical health is just as important as looking after your mental wellbeing.

Regular health checks can identify potential issues early and provide the best opportunity for positive long-term outcomes.

A simple appointment today could make a significant difference to your future health.

12/06/2026

Many serious health conditions can be prevented, treated or managed when detected early.

Yet many men avoid appointments because they're busy, unsure or simply don't make themselves a priority.

Looking after your health isn't selfish. It's one of the best things you can do for yourself and the people who care about you.
