Active Ageing

Being active is important!

As we get older, actively participating in the things that interest us is important for our wellbeing. It ensures we enjoy life as much as possible and also assists in maintaining independence and happiness.

There are many opportunities for Warrnambool's residents to actively participate in community life as they get older – to be involved, learn new things and stay active.

Planning for active ageing

Council is planning for the future to ensure Warrnambool people have many opportunities to participate in life as they get older.

Join the conversation

Council is keen to hear from residents 55 years of age & older about the activities/ events they currently enjoy, gauge the community awareness of the opportunities to be active in the community and the things you would like to do that are currently not available.

We're also keen to hear from people who might not yet have reached the age of 55 but can answer the survey based on the experiences of friends or family member aged over 60..

You can complete a survey in less than five minutes.
