Cycling Without Age

Our dedicated lifestyle team and on-site physiotherapist and exercise physiologists work together to develop and provide a wide range of activities and outings that can be enjoyed by all our residents.

Cycling for fun and fitness is an activity that many people enjoy or have enjoyed throughout their lives but have found more challenging with age.

Once a month our Lions Haven residents venture to Paradise Point to enjoy a 30 – 45 minute assisted bicycle ride around the parklands with the help of local charity organisation, Cycling Without Age (CWA). All residents are catered for, and age or mobility is not restriction, providing the perfect opportunity for those who are less mobile to experience the great outdoors.

Cycling Without Age takes elderly people (or those with disabilities) out for bike rides in specially built trishaw bikes piloted by volunteers. The bike rides are free of charge and Lions Haven residents are travel in the safety and comfort of our air-conditioned buses.

CWA’s mission is to build bridges between generations and help prevent loneliness. This activity provides elderly people with an opportunity to avoid social isolation and remain active in their community – and they get to feel the wind in their hair!

By collaborating with CWA and other local community partners, charities, and organisations we extend the range of lifestyle activities offered at Lions Haven and gives residents opportunities to try new things and meet new people.
