Positive ageing

Positive Ageing is the ability to maintain a positive outlook, feeling good about yourself, keeping fit and healthy and fully engaged in life as you age.

The No Barrier Positive Ageing Strategy 2022 - 2030 presents as a solid foundation and way forward for an age-friendly Shire.

The strategy describes ‘objectives’ under eight strategic 'focus areas' which seamlessly align with the:

  • World Health Organization’s Age-friendly Cities Framework
  • Commissioner for Senior Victorians' Ageing Well in a Changing World report
  • Ageing well in Victoria 2022–2026 action plan 
  • Hepburn Community Vision 2021–2031 Council Plan.
