Sporting Memories
Overview

Free, dementia-friendly social group for older adults and carers to connect through sport, stories and shared memories.

Reconnect through sport, stories and shared memories.

Sporting Memories is a relaxed, welcoming program for older adults, including people living with dementia and their carers. Using sport as a starting point, participants come together to chat, reminisce, laugh, and connect with others in their community.

Each session includes:

  • Friendly conversation about past sporting moments
  • Fun quizzes and activities
  • Story sharing and gentle discussion
  • Opportunities to make new friends in a supportive environment

No sporting knowledge is required — just an interest in conversation and connection.

This program supports wellbeing by reducing social isolation and creating a space where everyone feels:

  • Free to talk about anything
  • Included and valued
  • Encouraged to share and learn

Who is this for?

  • People aged 50+
  • People living with dementia
  • Carers, friends and family are welcome


Every 1st & 3rd Thursday of the month, 10:00am – 11:30am (Excluding school and public holidays)


💲 This program is FREE💲

Bookings preferred for planning purposes, but drop-ins are always welcome.


Delivered in partnership with Sporting Memories Network, Preventive Health SA, and Holdfast Bay Wellbeing Hub.
