AgeConnect
AgeConnect is a free, friendly service with a focus on helping those who are lonely and socially isolated to reconnect and have social interaction and engagement within their community.
Barriers that can prevent you from connecting:
· Loss of confidence
· Grief
· Health
· Transportation
· New to the area
· Covid
Would you like to engage more in your community or maybe you would like to revisit a hobby you used to enjoy.
We can help you to maintain social connections and reduce feelings of loneliness.
Taking part in social activities is shown to improve our wellbeing in later life.
We can help you access:
· Clubs and groups
· Available transport (bus services, taxis - Totally Mobility Scheme)
· Staying Active – exercise groups
AgeConnect Tauranga provides information about what is available in Tauranga to help older people maintain community links and build friendships.
