How can the Seniors Lifestyle Victoria program help me?

Seniors Lifestyle Victoria is a free program that supports older Victorians to stay active, healthy and connected. We help you navigate the healthcare system and connect you with services and activities that matter most to your wellbeing and independence..

A Seniors Lifestyle Victoria coordinator will support you to identify your health and lifestyle goals, connect you with services, and check in regularly to make sure your plan is working for you.
