Every Friday - Aligned to Go Exercise Class for Seniors at the Victoria Bowling Club 10am.

Recently developed by Age Concern Otago in collaboration with the University of Otago, Aligned To Go is our newest falls prevention exercise class.

Aligned To Go is quite different from the original Steady As You Go as it is designed by a contemporary dancer in association with the University of Otago. It’s much faster than Steady As You Go, and a little longer. It requires participants to do some barefoot walking and parts of it are dance moves.

This class is suitable for seniors who would like something a little faster than Steady As You Go. $3 donation.

Ann looks forward to welcoming you all back to this fun class.

The Wellington Residents’ Coalition is holding a meeting to discuss water meters and asset sales at 2pm on Sunday at Newtown Hall, Corner of Daniell and Constable Streets.

Paying over $6k in rates and now the Council want to add water to our cost of living because they are incompetent and waste money on vanity projects that no one supports and are not necessary instead of concentrating on the one most important asset we need to keep us alive. Water!
