Narrandera Shire Council is supporting this year’s NSW Seniors Festival, which started last Monday and will end on Sunday, 15 March, by hosting several events to acknowledge older people.

Now in its 68th year, the NSW Seniors Festival is the largest celebration of older people in the Southern Hemisphere, attracting more than 500,000 attendees across almost 50 events statewide.

The festival honours the contributions of people aged 60 plus, and 50 plus for First Nations people and those with a lifelong disability.

This year’s theme, “Live Life in Colour”, encourages seniors to embrace creativity, connection and an active lifestyle – celebrating both the journey so far and the adventure still to come.

The council has organised a vibrant program of local events designed to inspire wellbeing, creativity and community connection.
