We want to create a region that looks after the interests of its older members and recognises their needs in a supportive and considerate way. It is important to encourage and promote an active, healthy and engaged lifestyle for seniors in Kingborough.
Do you need some extra help at home?
The Kingborough Volunteer Program assists people aged 65 and over who need basic support services to continue to live in the community with dignity.
Positive Ageing Strategy
Kingborough Council updated its Positive Ageing Strategy in July 2018. For enquiries regarding the strategy, please contact our Community Development Team on (03) 6211 8200.
