Active Communities

60 Activities for Over 60's

You’ve told us that you’d like more information about things to do in Upper Hutt and how to get involved so we’ve put together this booklet of activities for you. The booklet offers seniors (or “soon to be seniors”) a handy list of local activities to get involved in. Whether it be creative endeavors, a new hobby, recreation or re-connecting with previous interests, this booklet is sure to offer something for everyone.

Staying active and involved in activities that interest you is an important way to stay healthy and keep a positive outlook on life. Many activities have a direct impact on your health, such as Tai Chi, which is proven to improve balance and reduce your chance of falls.

Most of the activities listed in this booklet involve participation with others (such as being part of a group) and are a great way to make new friends and meet people with common interests.
