Age Concern Aligned To Go Exercise Class is back Friday 2nd February!
Every Friday - Aligned to Go Exercise Class for Seniors at the Victoria Bowling Club 10am.
Recently developed by Age Concern Otago in collaboration with the University of Otago, Aligned To Go is our newest falls prevention exercise class.
Aligned To Go is quite different from the original Steady As You Go as it is designed by a contemporary dancer in association with the University of Otago. It’s much faster than Steady As You Go, and a little longer. It requires participants to do some barefoot walking and parts of it are dance moves.
This class is suitable for seniors who would like something a little faster than Steady As You Go. $3 donation.
Ann looks forward to welcoming you all back to this fun class.

Feijoa fundraising – thanks for the support
This message is just to express thanks to all the people who responded to my fundraising post www.neighbourly.co.nz...
The fundraising has made a significant dent in the cost of my ballet winter school fees.
I will probably have feijoas available for the next couple of weeks if anyone wants some more...
Cheers, Gemma.
Poll: Have you ever been bullied?
People associate bullying with children in schools, but it can actually stretch beyond childhood to workplaces or neighbourhoods.
This Friday is Pink Shirt Day, which began in Canada in 2007 when two students took a stand against homophobic bullying after a new student was harassed for wearing pink. People across the globe are now encouraged to wear pink on this day to take a stand against bullying and promote inclusivity.
Have you or your whānau ever experienced bullying? Share your thoughts on Pink Shirt Day below.
