Maintain your independence by connecting with others
As you age and situations change, the likelihood of you becoming isolated in your home will increase. In fact, according to recent studies, loneliness affects 1 in 5 older adults, so it is a common issue.
Loneliness can cause existing health conditions to worsen and can even cause new issues.
By interacting with friends or family, you gain the benefits of improvement to your mental and physical health, and in turn can maintain your independence if you wish.
North Shore CMA offers safe and inviting spaces for seniors to come together, enjoy one another’s company, and keep their mind and body active.
Activities can vary, but some examples include:
Membership
- Per session $10.00 with a nominal $5.00 if you require transport.
- Annual Membership fee $25.00
Give your family member the chance to enjoy so much more
If your older family members are independent and supporting themselves, without the interaction with others this can often lead to loneliness – which can cause health complications down the line.
We understand that it’s not always possible to keep in touch with your family member due to other commitments, which is why our North Shore CMA centres exist as a hub for your family member to meet and interact with others, and have fun doing it.
