This year’s Seniors Week (August 17-29) was the biggest ever! Seniors Week is the state’s premier event for older Queenslanders, bringing together people of all ages for a week-long celebration of the achievements and contributions of seniors.
Today most Queenslanders can expect to live into their eighties and some beyond. Longer life provides the opportunity to reconsider not only what older age might be but how our whole lives might unfold.
Every single one of us has our own story, so the lesson is to acknowledge me as an individual – don’t just look at the surface and see the wrinkles and grey hair, or frail exterior. Ask me what
my story is and what makes me feel inspired and motivated now.
Regular physical activity is important throughout life, especially as we age and being active will do your health wonders and will keep the body strong.
