As part of the 2025 Victorian Seniors Festival, local residents came together to learn about the LiveUp program — a free initiative from the Federal Government that supports healthy ageing.
LiveUp is all about helping older adults stay independent, active and connected by offering simple, practical tools and advice.
Participants explored:
- Easy ways to maintain physical, mental and social wellbeing.
- A quick self-assessment quiz to understand how you’re ageing.
- Access to local services and social activities.
- Helpful product suggestions — from walking aids to kitchen tools.
With 20 people attending the Benalla session, it was a great opportunity for locals to take charge of their health and wellbeing in a supportive environment.
This event is just one of more than 40 free or low-cost activities taking place throughout October as part of the Benalla Seniors Festival — celebrating connection, learning and community spirit.
