We run a variety of ongoing programs, events and activities for seniors living in our City. We would love to see you there!
Memory Café
The Memory Cafe is a community group for people living with dementia, their loved ones and supporters. You can join the group for a coffee, make new friends, share experiences and talk to representatives from the City of Melville.
Coffee is provided complimentary from the Westfield team and each month the catch ups are held at Birue Cafe, located opposite Coles.
