Positive Ageing Week (PAW) is an Age Action Ireland initiative. The focus is on community based events, organised by groups and individuals throughout Ireland, and national events organised by Age Action and its partners.
This September 28th to 2nd October Positive Ageing Week Festival is going online across the counties of Carlow, Kilkenny, Tipperary, Waterford and Wexford. This is a regional initiative which is funded by Healthy Ireland and it involves the local authorities across the 5 counties, the HSE and members of the Older Peoples Councils across the 5 counties and it is being led by staff from Tipperary County Council.
We have 3 themes to showcase our content over the week encompassing Health and Wellbeing, Information Sessions and Culture and Diversity.
