The group enjoys activities including trivia, bingo, name that tune, board games, technology classes, art and craft, and guest speakers, with free refreshments provided. Social Circle aims to help seniors meet new people, make friends, and connect with others. Social Circle is free and open to everyone over 55 years of age. Bookings are not required; just turn up on the day and join in the fun! Social Circle has been made possible through funding from the State Government’s Department of Communities and Justice as part of its Ageing Well in NSW initiative.
