Creating Connections, Enhancing Lives
At Ageing with Grace, we are committed to addressing the needs of older people, ensuring that they never feel isolated or neglected. Our organisation is devoted to providing support to older people, helping them to remain socially connected and independent. We recognise the unique challenges faced by people as they age and provide the necessary guidance and assistance for them to gracefully navigate them.
We believe that social connections are essential to the well-being of older people and have created a community that fosters companionship through various programs. Our organisation administers the Aged Care Volunteer Visitors Scheme, funded by the Australian Government, to reduce social isolation for older people.
At Ageing with Grace, we work to empower older people to embrace technology and efficiently stay connected. Our support spans social media, online shopping, internet browsing, video-calling and other related areas.

Through our services, we aim to create a society where age is celebrated, and older people are valued for their wisdom, experiences, and contributions to the community.
