Healthy Lifestyle and Wellness Program - Social Support Group

Think you’re ok – but could you be better?
There are many advantages to getting older. This is the time in life when you often have more freedom to enjoy family, friends, travel, hobbies, and the things you’ve been wanting to do for years. You’re wiser, more experienced, and have so much to offer.
Your wellbeing, however, is just as important now as it’s ever been. As people age, they may experience changes in their living arrangements, physical health, memory, or overall lifestyle. That’s why it’s essential to take the time to look after yourself.
And let’s be honest—your body may not feel quite the way it used to. Your 20s, with all their youthful energy, might seem like a distant memory. Daily aches and pains can creep in, waistlines change, and joining the 70‑ or 80‑plus club may feel overwhelming at times. But there is hope!
There are many ways to find support, and for older people registered with My Aged Care under Social Support Group, Neighbourhood Central has a program designed exactly for you.

Introducing the Healthy Lifestyle and Wellness Program
This program offers a range of enjoyable and relaxing activities to help improve health and wellbeing for older people living in Parkes, Forbes, and Peak Hill.
Activities include:
  • Morning teas
  • Craft groups
  • Luncheons
  • Social outings and trips
These activities are designed to help prevent or delay further entry into the aged care system, support your wellbeing, help you feel good, and—most importantly—keep you living in your home for longer.

Meet Your Program Facilitators
The faces behind the Healthy Lifestyle and Wellness Program, Ash Shields and Chris Harper, are here to support you every step of the way.
If you are:
  • Over 65, or
  • 50 years or older for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people,
and you feel that reconnecting with the community or taking part in fun activities could improve your health and wellbeing, we’d love to hear from you.
Call the team today on 6862 3757 to register.
Spaces are limited for each session—so make sure you secure your spot!
