What's On At The Hub 28/04/25



Hello everyone,

We hope everyone has had a lovely Easter with their friends, family and loved ones.


We are back to our normal schedule this week with the addition of a very informative workshop on food that is good for heart health and week two of the Stay on your feet program. (see below for details)


Connect 60+ will start again with a session on scrapbooking which is good way to present and remember your life story.


Our new member led groups Jam session and Creative crafts are up and running so come along and have some fun.


Please note we are closed on Friday, April 25th for Anzac Day.


Eating for Heart Health

Wednesday April 30, 11.15am


The food we eat plays a big role in our heart health. Our food choices are very important as they keep our heart pumping and strong. Curtin University will run a session about foods that support a healthy heart and foods that should be saved as occasional treats. In the long run what you eat could save your life so come along and learn about good food to keep your heart healthy.




Stay On Your Feet

Thursday @ 1pm, 24th April - 29 May


Join us for week two of this great course designed to equip you with the knowledge, tools, and confidence to reduce your risk of falling. This program will include three informative workshops and three balance and strength classes. We'll be covering different topics every week so we encourage everyone to attend the full 6 weeks.


Workshops will include balance and strength classes with Hannes, in addition to talks by optometrists, Injury Matters and podiatrists.


Falls are one of the leading causes of injury among older adults, but the good news is—they are preventable! Learn how by registering below:






Community Lunch Updates!


We are excited to announce that Community Lunch is returning! We'll be starting back up on the 29th of April, led by our new chef Amar and of course, our amazing group of volunteers. Amar is an experienced chef who has worked at many restaurants and pubs both in Perth and internationally. In addition, he's an incredibly community minded person, and we're excited to have him as part of the Hub's lunches.



We are looking for some additional volunteers to assist with community lunch. There are weekly, fortnightly, and monthly positions available. If you can assist, please let a Village Hub staff member know.



You can book now for the return of community lunch on the link below



New Member Group

Jam Session Wednesday 23rd 2.30-4pm

If you play a musical instrument and enjoy making music with other people, why not consider joining a new hub member-led activity group? Jamming is a spontaneous and fun way to create music with other people without the pressure of trying to play a set piece of music perfectly. We know that some members can play the UKelele and guitar but all instruments are welcome. Percussion instruments always add a bit of oomph to a jam session or you might even play the harmonica.


If you are interested, please speak to Hub member Gerard Siero or let us know at the front office.





Creative Crafts Workshops

Thursdays, 2:30 pm


Join Village Hub member Anne, as she explores the world of creative crafts each week. These workshops allow you to express and develop your creativity. Creating craft projects exercise your dexterity and fine motor skills, and they can also contribute to mindfulness.



You can book for this free and creative new group on the following link




Vale Maida Brown


We are sad to announce the loss of Maida Brown a long-time Village Hub member who many of you will fondly remember. We know that Maida had a lot of friends here at the Hub and we would like to invite you to sign a card which will be sent to her family.


Please let us know at the desk if you would like to write a message.


Connect 60+
