A GROUP of semi-retired Coast men has been left hurt and angry after their plans for a social club at Palmwoods were thwarted by claims they could present a danger to children living nearby.
The men started the Sunshine Valley Men’s Shed group as part of the national initiative to improve the health of older men by giving them a chance to socialise and work together.
But the dream has been crushed after a nearby resident made an official complaint to council, saying a large gathering of elderly men could be a danger to local children.
