Understanding shedders: Which socio-demographic, health and wellbeing characteristics best inform appropriate health promotion action in men's sheds and a 'Shed for Life'?

Future health promotion initiatives should capitalise on the inherent health-promoting properties of Sheds. SO WHAT?: Findings raise important implications for prioritising and designing health promotion initiatives in Shed settings.
