Active Ageing Activities

A centre-based initiative that provides social and recreational activities aimed at keeping our seniors physically and mentally active. 

Masthead

Reinvigorating Seniors. Strengthening Communities.

We provide a range of home-based and community-based services to meet the diverse needs of our seniors, supporting their right to age gracefully.

Through our Active Ageing Centres (AACs), we help seniors connect with each other, discover new things, and hone their curiosity – allowing them to take charge of their lives.

Coupled with accessible and timely support for our seniors, we are actively moving toward a stronger and more enabled community.

In line with the Healthier SG and Age Well SG initiatives, our AACs offer a variety of activities and programmes based on five distinct pillars:

  • Social 
  • Physical health 
  • Cognitive 
  • Learning 
  • Volunteerism

What You Can Expect

We currently run five AACs in the central and northern regions of Singapore. We welcome you to explore your interests and join social and recreational activities at the AAC nearest to you.

We offer a variety of activities that cover a broad range of interests. These include:

  • Workshops (acrylic painting, tile-making, healthy eating, etc.) 
  • Music interest groups (angklung, ukulele, singing, etc.) 
  • Exercise sessions (aqua aerobics, Zumba, nature walks, yoga, etc.) 
  • Games (Bingo, Rummy-O, chess, etc.) 
  • Health and mental wellness talks and activities 
  • Festive celebrations and outings 

In addition to the above activities, we have also partnered with DBS Foundation to curate the DBS Foundation x TOUCH Senior Wellness & Community Activation Programme (SWCAP). This partnership will help us to provide more holistic support to seniors as it expands beyond the existing AAC model wellness domains to include spiritual and financial domains.

Through a range of wellness programmes, seniors can:

  • Discover their values, purpose and plan ahead through the signature Reflection of Life’s Journey programme
  • Strengthen relationships and emotional well-being with loved ones and new friends while navigating life transitions
  • Stay physically well through fitness and nutrition workshops 
  • Build financial resilience through financial and digital literacy workshops developed with professionals from DBS 
  • Become a Wellness Motivator to encourage, support and befriend fellow seniors in the community

* DBS Foundation x TOUCH SWCAP is only available at selected AACs.
