Positive Ageing for Positive People

Ageing, Community, Health, HIV, Thorne Harbour Health (VAC)

Positive Ageing for Positive People aims to support people 45 years and older living with HIV in developing skills, social connections, and self-empowerment, which are integral to ageing well.

Presented by SAMESH, the workshop series is supported by a Positive Ageing Fellowship Grant from the Office for Ageing Well.

The Office’s Executive Director Cassie Mason joins us to speak about the office’s history, their involvement with LGBTIQ+ communities and people living with HIV, and more.

Learn more about or sign up for the Positive Ageing for Positive People workshop series in Adelaide here.

Check out our other JOY Podcasts for more on LGBTIQ+ health & wellbeing.

If there’s something you’d like us to explore on the show, send through ideas or questions at wellwellwell@joy.org.au

Find out more about LGBTIQ+ services and events in Victoria at Thorne Harbour Health and in South Australia at SAMESH.
