Seniors Social Isolation Grants Now Open

The Queensland Government is expanding a vital scheme that helps older Queenslanders stay connected to each other and their communities.

An additional $2.5 million in grants each year between 2024-25 and 2028-29 to address seniors social isolation is now available for organisations to deliver services as well as for a peak body. Your organisation could join the 42 services already operating across the state and help more people  stay connected to their peers and their community.

Current services provide a range of activities including yoga, tai chi, line dancing, craft and board games, bare foot bowls, cinema visits and lunch groups.
