Improvement 04: Develop more culturally appropriate activities for older women

Event audience comments

Getting more involved in other activities that happen to link with different groups
People from other cultures are invited to community groups but don't come
Could work with Group 2
There shouldn't be segregated meetings. Everyone should be welcome at all meetings regardless of religion, role or creed.
Note: I disagree with this comment, it is important that people can get together and feel comfortable in their own language
More facilities for older ladies
Important to respect all cultures. Only 1 race - human race
More things for older women
Interest needs to be increased not just for 60 - 80 year olds but for slightly younger. Include mixing of cultures
We think other women from other cultures have lots to offer us and we them
Opportunity to link with women from other cultures
Need help to gain funds
More activities for older people. As we get older we feel more insecure and isolated, so activities have a social and health impact
Multi - Cultural workforce
More cross culture activities needed - Community Development Workers have a role to play
Pity that we are obliged to segregate ourselves
Intergenerational work
Interesting to know speaker learned things about own culture
Link in with being a city of culture
Link in with Elders Council
Link into existing friendship groups etc
Our dialect is being lost too
Nice for women to do this
Do not assume that all old ladies want to do old-fashioned things!
Mixed workers - language barriers
All welcome to our group
