Carers ACT is starting a new Seniors Social Group and we are looking for participants!

To be eligible, you should be 65 years or older (or 50 years or older if Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander) and have a My Aged Care Referral for Social Supports.

We can help you apply for a referral if you don’t already have one.

Two groups will run each week in both Belconnen and Woden.

The Belconnen Group will run every Wednesday from 10.30am to 1.30pm

The Woden Group will run every Monday from 10am to 1pm in Woden.

You don’t have to be a carer to join.  Carers and the people they care for are welcome to join, either individually or together,  provided they both have the appropriate referrals.

These groups will work flexibly to engage with participants to provide meaningful activities, excursions and social engagement.

Eligibility

• You should be aged over 65 years or over 50 years for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders
• Have a My Aged Care Referral for Social Supports;
• Require low level, basic service

Cost

Weekly session cost is $10.  Excursions and lunches will incur additional.
