The coast lifestyle
TheSunshine Coast has long enjoyed an enviable reputation for its relaxed coastal lifestyle, abundant natural attractions and healthy outdoor environment. For local residents, these assets have been doubly appreciated more recently during the pandemic, as travel restrictions have encouraged us to stay at home and get to know our region and neighbourhoods even better.
In an already active and lively community, our over 55 residents are one of our greatest assets. They bring with them a wealth of experience from all walks of life, invaluable skills and knowledge gleaned and shared over career lifetimes, and ideas and concepts gathered that can influence the planning for the future of our region. To ensure the Sunshine Coast continues to flourish and our community continues to benefit, we need to draw on this invaluable resource.

Our over 55 residents can play an important role by becoming actively involved in a range of partnerships with government agencies, organisations and communities across the region. The Healthy Sunshine Coast Seniors Program, IAgeWell’s Lifestyle 55+ Expo, Healthy Ageing Partnership, the opening of the innovative hub Vitality Village and Lifestyle 55+ magazine and service directory are just a few of the many collaborative initiatives aimed at creating a resilient, resourceful, active and socially engaged community.
Let’s work together to build an even healthier, smarter and more creative Sunshine Coast for all our residents.
