Coffee catch-ups, guest speakers and lunch are on the agenda in February for the Mitchelton Older Women’s Network, which also covers the Moreton Bay Region.
Convenor Judith Heindorff says the network aims to provide information to women relating to a healthy outlook on ageing and to meet in a friendly, social atmosphere.
“We get together each week and we enjoy ourselves,” Judith says.
The Older Women’s Network Mitchelton is part of a state-wide organisation with groups in three states of Australia, as well as a national branch and there are Older Women’s Networks in the UK and the USA, among other countries.
