Alexandrina Council was successful in receiving an Age-Friendly SA Grant from Office for Ageing Well to deliver a 'Wellness in Nature' project. This project seeks to improve community health and wellbeing for all age groups through activities that increase engagement with nature.

The initiative will provide opportunities to participate in activities in parks, beaches and rivers within the Alexandrina region with the aim of increasing social connection and physical activity and enhancing mental health. It may involve workshops, ‘come and try’ sessions and other activities.
