The Networking Clubs in the Community program, funded by the
Home and Community Care Program, aims to give an opportunity for South Australian Seniors Clubs and groups to be developed as resource centres for older people within the community.
The Networking Clubs in the Community Program aims to help seniors’ clubs develop club activities and programs in a variety of ways such as providing the support of trained Clubs Liaison Volunteers, offering ‘Running a club’ training and assisting clubs with networking with other seniors' clubs, local government and other community organisations.
