The World Senior Citizen's Day is celebrated on 21 August each year. The day is intended to increase awareness of the factors and issues that affect older adults.


While getting old is a natural process there are also some challenges faced by Senior Citizens. Restricted mobility and loneliness can reduced their quality of life. Sony Simanjuntak and Wida Chandler from IKAWIRIA in Melbourne discuss how their organisation hold Seniors Fun Day annually and other community activities that can improve the wellbeing of their senior members.
