August is Sorted Money Month — a nationwide campaign dedicated to helping New Zealanders boost their money skills and feel
more confident about their financial future.
At Age Concern Auckland, we know that financial wellbeing plays a huge role in living well as we get older. Whether you’re on a fixed
income, supporting whānau, or planning for the years ahead, small money moves can make a big difference.
Here are some practical tips to help you make the most of your money — starting today.
When the first chilly morning arrives in Auckland, many of us instinctively reach for an extra blanket and think, "Here we go again." But what if this winter could be different? What if, instead of simply enduring the colder months, we could learn to embrace them as an opportunity for renewal, connection, and self-care?
As we observe World Elder Abuse Awareness Day on June 15th and Elder Abuse Awareness Week through June 22nd, Age Concern Auckland stands with communities across New Zealand to shine a light on a serious issue that affects thousands of older people in our country every year.
Finding your way through Auckland's healthcare system shouldn't feel like solving a puzzle. Our straightforward guide helps seniors and their families access the right services, understand entitlements, and navigate hospital visits with confidence. Discover practical tips and local resources to take control of your healthcare journey.
Whether it’s a parent, neighbour, or older friend, knowing how to truly support someone as they age isn’t always easy. Many of us want to help but don’t always know what to do. Here are some practical tips to guide you in providing meaningful support to the older people in your life.
We are a group of caring individuals with diverse specialties and skills who cater to various needs. For some older people, it’s about finding more social connection or combating a decline in health; for others, it may involve addressing serious issues like elder abuse. Either way we're here to help.
