We are committed to improving the wellbeing of our residents. To support health and wellbeing, we are excited to continue the Boroondara Wellbeing Conversations in 2024. These free, interactive seminars offer community members an opportunity to learn about various health and wellbeing topics and connect with like-minded individuals.
Facilitated by local community members, each seminar features an expert speaker who shares their knowledge and experience on the subject. Attendees have the chance to participate in meaningful conversations, gather practical tips and discuss strategies for maintaining their mental and physical wellbeing.
The seminars are hosted at our libraries and are free to attend. Registrations are essential.
