Senior drivers have got years of experience behind the wheel.

We like to ask the following - When did you last have a refresher course for your driving? Have you kept up with changes to the road code? Do you know how ageing can affect your driving? Or do you just want to check in to see if you still are the best driver you can be?

Otago Local Disability Leadership Group - Community Hui

Join the Otago Local Disability Leadership Group LDLG for a community hui! We welcome community members to engage with service providers to explore the range of services available within Dunedin. The goal of this gathering is to foster connections between the community and providers, ensuring everyone is well-informed about the available resources.

Toss the Boss - Southern Youth Development's Annual Fundraiser

Got plans for 2024? How about 'facing your fears for a great cause' plans? We can help you out with that!
This year we're back with our annual fundraiser, Toss the Boss, and we'll be looking for community leaders who are willing to raise funds in their community for the opportunity to abseil from Forsyth Barr Stadium. It's an opportunity of a lifetime and a great way to ensure young people in Otago get the support they need.

This year's Toss the Boss is on Friday, 17 May.
