Today marks the beginning of WA Seniors Week 2024 (10 - 17 November); a week that celebrates the role of older people, promotes positive ageing, and encourages participation in community life.
Metropolitan and regional areas will celebrate with hundreds of events and activities designed to connect older people with their community.
Through the Department of Communities (together with Lotterywest), 79 community organisations and local governments have been provided with grants to hold events and activities during Seniors Week.
The annual ‘Have a Go Day’ is also being held at Burswood Park on Wednesday 13 November. This free event is coordinated by the Seniors Recreation Council of WA and runs from 9am to 3pm.
The Communities Seniors and Ageing and Seniors Card teams will have a marquee providing information, resources, and replacement Seniors Cards.
The 2024 Seniors Information Resource will also be launched. The full program is available on the Seniors Recreation Council of WA webpage.
