Join In and Enjoy the Benefits
Hey! Have you thought about the benefits of participating in social and community activities?
It is well known that the impacts on personal well-being are truly advantageous … such as reducing stress, boosting self-esteem, and improving overall mental health. Not to mention the social aspect of being in other people's company and just having a good time!
As humans, most of us are looking to belong to something or be a part of something. It takes us outside of ourselves and can jumpstart us out of that rut … especially for the more mature generation. We can provide support to others and, in turn, be ourselves supported; this goes further than just being involved in a group, activity, classes, etc. You might find that you are really good at something that you didn't even know about. Or, at least come along to have some fun and a laugh.
Our three Scenic Rim centres are delighted to provide spaces for our local community to hold a variety of classes or rehearsals for your enjoyment. Have a look at what's on and, if you have any enquiries, please call us on (07) 5540 5050, during office hours, Tuesday - Friday, 10 am - 4 pm, or email us at: thecentre@scenicrim.qld.gov.au
