SENIOR CITIZEN ACTIVITIES

Alex from Bucklands Beach

Hi Neighbours,
Hoping you can perhaps recommend services for Senior Citizens in East Auckland, my dear friend has an elderly mother (80's) who is finding herself extremely bored everyday, am wondering if there are any local community groups that offer activities for seniors that we may be able to get her involved in. She's a keen gardener, knitter and is still fit & mobile, we just need to fill in some mornings with activities to keep her mind active and save her boredom. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanking you

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Buses can be a relaxing way to get home if you have a seat and enough space. However, it can be off-putting when someone is taking a phone call next to you.

Do you think it's inconsiderate for people to have lengthy phone calls on a bus? Vote in the poll, and add your comments below.
