Our next FREE Healthy Ageing Talk is coming up!
Sometimes it’s hard to believe we’re the 'older generation' - we don’t feel old… until our knees (or hips or shoulders) remind us! 😅
🌿 Ageing is part of life, and staying informed helps us live it well.
The Australian Government launched its new Support at Home Program on 1 November, and older Australians are navigating a changing aged care landscape.
If you or someone you love are thinking about aged care (or trying not to think about it 😉), come along and learn about the programs and services that support healthy, independent ageing.
Chris and Maria from Cultura will help you understand and access My Aged Care and other supports, including how to get started with the new Support at Home program.
📅 Tuesday 11 November
🕒 3:30–4:30pm
📍 Geelong West Neighbourhood House
Register for your free spot here: events.humanitix.com/healthy-ageing-talks-navigating-my-aged-care-and-support-at-home
This free event is supported by the City of Greater Geelong.

When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it's been deleted.Just a reminder that our office is closed today for the public holiday and will reopen on Wednesday 5 November at 10am.
Pilates and yoga classes are running but there is no 2pm strength class.
