This Grandparents Week, do something grand for someone you cherish.
Grandparents and older people can leave a lasting mark on our lives. They share stories and traditions, teach us things we never forget, offer encouragement when we need it, and give us memories that stay with us.
This Grandparents Day, we’re celebrating those special connections and inviting you to join us.
Whether you’re thinking about a grandparent, parent, neighbour, friend or another older person who has made a difference in your life, there are three simple ways you can get involved.
-
Share their wisdom
What’s one important lesson an older person taught you?
Perhaps it was a piece of practical advice, a family tradition, a favourite saying, or simply a way of looking at life.
Share their lesson with us and help celebrate the wisdom, experience and stories passed from one generation to the next.
-
Help someone you love stay connected
Sometimes the best thing you can give someone is an opportunity.
Subscribe to Age Concern Nelson Tasman updates and we’ll keep you informed about activities, events, information and opportunities for older people across our community.
When you see something that Mum, Dad, Grandma, Grandad or another older person in your life might enjoy, pass it on.
It’s a simple way to help someone you care about stay connected, active and involved.
-
Give in honour of someone special
Celebrate someone who has made a difference in your life by making a small tribute donation in their honour.
Your gift to Age Concern Nelson Tasman helps us continue creating opportunities for older people to connect, participate, access support and enjoy being part of their community.
Give for someone you cherish, remember or simply want to say thank you to.
