25.01.2022 At 77 years old, Madame Poole has been dancing for over 7 decades. For most dancers, they stop at the age of 20, but not Madame Poole. Her motto: life is too short not to do what you want to do A role model and inspiration to so many, she shows that age is just a number! Hope youre dancing into the weekend.

24.01.2022 At 96-years old Guiseppe Paterno, is one of Italys oldest university students. Unable to go to university as a kid, in 2017 he decided it was now or never. At the University of Palermo, Guiseppe studied Historical and Philosophical studies. And like most students, he was up until midnight studying away, however with the unique twist of using a typewriter. ... It just shows what you can achieve at any age with hard work and dedication! Keep up the great work

24.01.2022 84-year-old Hsu Sho-er and her 83-year-old husband Chang Wan-ji are the latest fashionistas to come out of Taiwan. The twist? Theyre modelling clothes long-forgotten and abandoned in their laundry store. Have you got any old clothes you could model?

23.01.2022 While we may not be able to get outside each day at the moment, its important to remember to stay moving. Whether thats dancing, gardening, or a short walk around the block. How do you stay active?

23.01.2022 Tao Portion-Lynch has been practising yoga for over 90s year after she saw some young boys doing yoga on the beach in India. Even back then she defied the norm when her aunty told her yoga was only for boys. And today, at 100-years-old, Tao teaches regular classes in New York. Her Life philosophy is to embrace every day with joy. Truly an inspiration!

21.01.2022 A Quote of the Day to remember! Youre in charge of how you feel and its up to you how you choose to live your life!

21.01.2022 By now almost everyone has heard of TikTok. And this 87-year-old grandfather has found a way to use it to keep him connected with his family. Through dances, jokes, and fond family memories, he shows that sometimes you just need to let go and laugh at yourself and with others.

21.01.2022 Grandmother Peggy Griffiths is the 2020 winner of the Cultural Adornment and Wearable Art Award at the National Indigenous Fashion Awards. The winning design is the legacy dress made from layers of patterns that each represent a different story of the artists in her community. Since 1985, Peggy Griffiths has been working with Waringarri Aboriginal Arts and creates beautiful dresses, carvings and boomerangs. All such incredible pieces of art that are rich in culture and stories.

17.01.2022 "It [was] the most special of days" for Captain Sir Tom Moore, who was knighted by the Queen this past weekend. Its more great news following his outstanding achievement of raising over $50 million for the NHS by walking laps of his Bedfordshire home garden. What an incredible honour for an amazing man!

16.01.2022 Sometimes the most important thing to do is just listen wholeheartedly

15.01.2022 To all the fathers, grandfathers, father figures and loved ones, we hope you all celebrated a wonderful Fathers Day yesterday. Check out this father and son duo from Kentucky, who are testing out the custom lift built by the son who noticed his father struggled to access his tractor. There are many ways we can express our love and sometimes its by simply showing that you care.

15.01.2022 Looking for a sweet afternoon treat? This scone recipe from the Country Women’s Association is a must-try. And don't forget to add in the lashings of jam and whipped cream! Yum!!! If you give it a go we’d love to see your photos!

14.01.2022 When Lyn Farrington started reading stories to her grandchildren over video chat, she certainly didnt expect to become a YouTube sensation. Lyn now has a growing fan base, and reads all the Australian classics, from Possum Magic to Wombat Stew. You can hear her stories on Instagram or YouTube at SheNANNAgans, and share them with your loved ones. ... It really goes to show the importance of spreading love and stories during times of need.

12.01.2022 Such great news!! After spending over 7 months in hospital with COVID-19, 81-yr-old Richard Misior was recently discharged and returned home. It has certainly been a tough year for so many but it's wonderful to see some people beginning to return back to their daily lives.

11.01.2022 Back in May for Mothers Day, Jason and his family decided to create something special for his mother Hendrika, who suffers from Alzheimers and Vascular Dementia. As a child, they use to spend the whole day at the Sydney Aquarium mesmerised by the fish, and this is a memory Jason treasures fondly. And so he decided to relive this experience once more, but from the comfort of their home. ... Such a creative and beautiful idea! Would you try something like this at home?

11.01.2022 How adorable is this dancing and singing pair! Whats your favourite song to groove to?

Who are you looking forward to seeing when you can again?

11.01.2022 Happy Friday everyone! While some parts of Australia are starting to relax restrictions its still important to maintain social distancing where possible.

10.01.2022 A little afternoon inspiration for you all! Something to always remember

10.01.2022 At 66-years-old Grace Speranza from Melbourne, has learnt to ride a bike for the first time! "I've never let my age stop me from doing things. I can't do a two-wheeler, I'll do a three-wheeler, I don't care how silly I look." We love her great attitude and spirit. Keep a lookout for Grace if she’s riding around in your area!

09.01.2022 Len Derrick, from Perth, was inspired to create the Sunsava when he saw an exhausted worker out in the heat. Such a clever idea that will protect so many workers from the sun. It even includes coloured panels to help the user identify the correct side of the sign. Do you know somewhere this would be great to use?

08.01.2022 On his 24th birthday, Norm Marston began working at The Mt Barker Courier in South Australia. Now 67 years later, at 91 years old he is the newspapers editor. Many regional papers have sadly had to close down due to the coronavirus, but Norm hasnt let that stop him. ... Such an incredible man, keep up the great work!!

08.01.2022 Theres nothing better than freshly baked bread! The smell, the taste, the crispiness. Simply yum. Despite their age, every day this couple is dedicated to putting all their love into their baked goods. Its no wonder theyre a hit with the community. ... Anyone elses tongues watering now!?

07.01.2022 Another great review for Better Living Homecare, we love hearing from our happy clients!

07.01.2022 If this isnt just the cutest dancing duo weve ever seen! Maive Jones was in need of a dance partner for her recital, and who better than her 72-yr old grandpa Bill, who himself came from a family of dancers. Check out their moves!

07.01.2022 Our Care Managers are amazing! We love hearing wonderful feedback from our clients, it certainly makes our day

07.01.2022 How beautiful is this! 89-year-old Alice serenades us with Somewhere Over the Rainbow. Sending well wishes to everyone.

06.01.2022 Today is R U Ok? Day. While the world is certainly a different place at the moment, now more than ever is it important to check in on those around us. Take a moment to reach out to your loved ones, friends, colleagues and neighbours. For some, its even just letting them know youre there to talk if needed. If youre feeling alone and ever need someone to talk with there are a range of organisations you can contact offering 24/7 support and advice.

06.01.2022 Dementia can impact one's life in many ways. For Hendrika, who lives with Alzheimer's disease and Vascular Dementia one thing that changed was that she was no longer able to paint her nails. With the help of her son, Jason, she was able to gain that precious moment back. And he did a pretty amazing job at them. As Jason, said Sure people forget things (and what was said) but someone in need will never forget how you made them feel

05.01.2022 Our Care Manager Jess, who lives in Tasmania, out for her morning stroll before work. Or should we say ski in this case? Whats the view like outside your window today?

02.01.2022 Something’s a little out of the ordinary in this photo! It might very well be the friendly Koala that Amanda McCormick found in her Christmas Tree at her South Australian home. He certainly makes a unique and fluffy ornament, but maybe just a little bit big

02.01.2022 This year founders day celebrations for the Bundaberg Queensland Country Womens Association (QCWA) were a little different. They had planned to commemorate the occasion with the second-ever Bundaberg Scone Festival, but due to coronavirus restrictions, plans changed. Instead, they introduced Drive-Thru scones, with the local community placing 1000s of orders. ... A wonderful idea showing a community coming together during unusual times. Would you like Drive-Thru scones in your neighbourhood?

02.01.2022 Sometimes we all just need a laugh! This grandma could barely make it through reading this childrens book about donkeys. What makes you laugh?

02.01.2022 Happy Friday! We hope you're dancing into the weekend. What's your go-to song to get your groove on?

01.01.2022 Today Avice celebrates her 100th birthday with the listeners of ABC Radio Melbourne. When Melbourne went into lockdown, Avice from Traralgon called into the radio to request a song, ‘You Are My Sunshine?. This became a weekly traditional with many songs requested and many listeners eager for her call. But it was her 100-year-old mystery that intrigued everyone the most, the meaning behind her name. We love this story about how Avice became a national treasure. Do you know the meaning of her name?
