Connecting Seniors & Carers Program

Connecting Seniors & Carers Program

Connecting Seniors & Carers Program helps older people and unpaid carers stay connected, informed, and supported in their local community. This free program links participants with health and wellbeing services that match their individual needs. It also helps people find support earlier and build confidence when going through important life changes.

Participants can get involved in many ways, including attending free events, joining focus groups, helping to co-design new initiatives, receiving newsletters, or volunteering. These activities create opportunities to meet new people, share experiences, and stay connected to the community.

Being involved can support healthy ageing by improving social connections, boosting confidence, and helping people access services that support their physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing. The program also encourages lifelong learning and active participation in community life, which can help people stay engaged and independent as they age.
