Victoria’s Mornington Peninsula’s first dedicated Senior Exercise Park has opened in Mount Martha.
Designed specifically for older adults, this new park provides a safe and accessible space for seniors to stay active, build strength and balance, and connect with others in the community.
Delivered in partnership with the National Ageing Research Institute, the park is about supporting healthy ageing. If offers a space where seniors can improve their fitness in a safe, social, and enjoyable environment.
This new community asset was made possible through funding from Mornington Shire Council’s Positive Ageing budget, reinforcing a commitment to active ageing across the Peninsula.
It not only promotes physical health but also provides opportunities for social interaction, helping to reduce feelings of loneliness and isolation among seniors.
There are 28 seniors exercise parks located across Melbourne and regional Victoria, according to the National Ageing Research Institute.
