Upcoming events
Saturday 30 August 2025: Planning Ahead with LGBTIQ+ communities and their carers in Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland
We will be having our fourth workshop on Saturday 30 August, 10am-12pm. This is for members of Rainbow+🌈 communities (LGBTIQ+, Rainbow, Takatāpui or MVPFAFF) and anyone who support or cares for someone from those communities. It is a chance to come together and talk about what planning for ageing well for our communities looks like.
We’re co-creating a space to talk about planning for better health, finances, housing, relationships, and everything else that matters to us as we age.
This is the fourth of five planned sessions, held once a month from June to October 2025. Each session will be a relaxed, inclusive space to share, listen, and imagine better futures.
Email us if you would like to be involved in these workshops.
