Social Support & Community Engagement

Join us as Perth Northern Suburbs and Perth West Coast come together for International Coffee Day. See how our group outings bring joy, connection, and routine for older Australians.

October 1 is International Day of Older Persons — a day to honour the contributions, wisdom, and resilience of older people in our communities. At Right at Home, it’s also a time to celebrate something we strongly believe in: the power of connection.

Combat loneliness this winter. Discover simple ways to reconnect older Australians through warm, inclusive activities and community care.

Winter is the perfect season for warm connections, meaningful activities, and making memories with older Australians. Whether you’re a carer, a family member, or a community coordinator, planning seasonal activities helps beat the winter blues and encourages social engagement and joy.

This year, Loneliness Awareness Week Australia falls from 5 to 11 August championing all of us to challenge loneliness and embrace connection.  

Community involvement as a retiree is not just important, it is vital for both continued socialisation and cognitive function. Right at Home, Australia's premier, quality home care provider, has tips for the elderly.

It is safe to say that many of us have experienced loneliness at one point or another. It is a normal part of life – along with all the times we may have wished for the opposite – just a few moments of peace and quiet! But too much loneliness and isolation can lead to physical and mental health problems as you age.

It's the festive season and as we head into the New Year this weekend, what better excuse to connect with those we love!

Queensland Seniors Month is here again, and our Right at Home Queensland offices are excited for what’s in store. This year’s theme is social connections, something that remains crucial to everyone at any age.

Right at Home Australia's premier homecare provider and disability support provider reminds us that September 23rd is International Day of Sign Languages, an important part of the International Week of the Deaf.
