Qld Seniors Week 18-26 August

Queenslanders are celebrating their Seniors Week with the theme ‘Get Ready for the Time of your Life!’

This provides an opportunity to promote a positive image for ageing, rather than the negative stereotypes so often portrayed in the mainstream media.

With more than 300 events underway, there is something for everyone – ranging from dancing to debating, arts to awards, craft to computers, health to Harley-Davidsons and fashion to food.

Seniors Week also encourages older people to lead active lifestyles and to foster inter-generational relationships.

The online events calendar provides information on Seniors Week activities planned to take place throughout the state.
