Positive Ageing Forum

The Nelson Tasman Positive Ageing Forum's role is to provide an opportunity for older persons and agencies who work for and with them to enable residents of Nelson Tasman to age positively.

Housing focussed session 23 July

For many people it’s one of the bigger life decisions they’ll make, downsizing the home. But where do you start? What do you need to do? Who can offer advice?

Our Motueka Positive Ageing Forum is on Tuesday 23 July at 11.00 am at the Motueka Over 50’s Social Club, and we are focusing on downsizing your home.

We will have a local real estate agent speaking about what options there are in the housing market, where to start with selling your home, who you need to talk to and how to prepare your house for sale.

The Nelson Tasman Retirement Village Residents Association will speak about what is involved in living in a retirement or lifestyle village.

We’ll also have ‘Homeshare for Her’ which is a safe and welcoming platform for women to find and share homes.


 

As part of promoting positive ageing, we host regular networking and information sessions for older people in Richmond and Motueka called Positive Ageing Forums. The meetings are open for agencies and individuals and cover various topics such as wellbeing, housing, digital literacy and others.
