Positive Ageing Week 2026

Welcome to Positive Ageing Week at Sandymount Community Centre — a special time to celebrate the richness, energy and experience that every stage of life brings. This week is about coming together, sharing moments of connection, discovering new possibilities and recognising the many ways older people enrich our community. We warmly invite you to join us in creating a welcoming space where ageing is celebrated with positivity, dignity and joy.
