New Tricks

It’s never too late to learn a new skill – just ask the clients who are mastering everything from technology to tai chi at our mind+move Leisure & Wellness Club.

There’s nothing better than strengthening mind or body or learning about new technologies, no matter your age or stage of life.

This is exactly what Catholic Healthcare offers clients at the mind+ move Leisure and Wellness Club, located at our McQuoin Park community in Wahroonga, Sydney.

The Wellness Centre is open to both the wider community as well as existing Home Care clients. There is also a low monthly membership fee option, with a pay as you go casual rate.

The growing list of activities on offer at mind+move include art therapy, book club, meditation, trivia, Pilates, yoga, seated exercise, concerts and day trips and a smart technology program.

Our first graduating Smart Technology class (pictured above) at mind+move graduated earlier this year. Over five weeks, these happy clients have learned how to make the most out of their smart devices with apps, email, photo sharing, video calling and more.

Therese Adami, Catholic Healthcare General Manager of Home and Community Services, presented certificates to the graduating class. “This program is all about helping clients to build meaningful connections, grow in confidence, and have fun with their smart devices. There were so many things that I didn’t know how to use, but now I’m very confident with my tablet,” says graduate Paula. “But the favourite app I’ve downloaded is Candy Crush saga.”
