Seniors Week celebrates older Tasmanians and recognises the contributions we make to our communities. It’s a week of events for older people, all over Tasmania.

This year Seniors Week ran from 14-20 October with an Intergenerational Theme!

Many of the organisations that host events during Seniors Week have events happening year-round. Why not have a look through the guide and get in touch with a local group to find out about getting involved in an activity in your area.

You can download a PDF of the program here.

For enquiries, please contact Bob Catchpole on (03) 6231 3265 or email robertc@cotatas.org.au.

 

Have a go at our Seniors Week recipe!

In 2024 we’re excited to have the support of local celebrity chef Massimo Mele. Food can be such a dynamic and powerful way for people to come together, – for Chef Mele, this means making Zeppole (Italian Donuts).  Download a copy of the recipe below and be sure to keep an eye on our Facebook page to find out how you can get involved during Seniors Week.

Check out the recipe here.
