Drumming Circle
Due to low registration numbers, sorry we have had to cancel the Drumming Circle scheduled for Wednesday 14 December 2022. A similar event will be advertised in 2023 when people are less likely to have such a full social calendar.
Look forward to seeing you next year.

Australian guidelines recommend older people do 30 minutes of physical activity every day for strength, flexibility, fitness, and balance. It is also good for your mental health. The exercises were developed by allied health professionals with expertise in exercise for older people.
