Our Vision and Aims

Vision

Our Vision is for members to gain new friends, self-confidence, self-esteem, new interests and ideas as well as reducing isolation changing circumstances may cause.  Funded by Qld. Health we offer group activities incorporating the Women Growing Older Program through a variety of workshops, speakers and activities to promote healthy ageing.

 Aims:

  • Encourage life enrichment, mutual support and companionship amongst older women.
