At Cultura, we understand that many older people want to remain in their homes, living independently and flexibly for as long as possible. We are also aware that for some, this can be isolating.Â
Cultura offers a range of social programs to support older people in make social connections, trying new activities, be active within their community, and maintaining their independence.Â
We understand this can sometimes feel daunting, but you can be assured that our friendly staff are always on hand to support participants, and more often than not, our groups form lifelong friendships. Carers can relax knowing their loved one is being well cared for.
