Important information

• You must be able to enter and exit a bus without assistance as it does not cater for wheelchair access.
• No personal support is provided in these programs. Council’s Shopping and Library bus programs require participants to be fully independent except for the transport support provided.
• Because of limited room on the bus, a maximum of 4 shopping bags per person is allowed on the return trip and you must be able to carry your own shopping. Our volunteers are not permitted to lift more than 5kgs in weight.
• The days and times of the activities vary depending on your home location and destination, and you will be advised of the schedule when you book your regular fortnightly program.

Social inclusion and Wellbeing program

This class is part of Maroondah's Social Inclusion and Wellbeing program, which ensures that residents who are frail/aged, have a disability, or are socially isolated receive support to remain independent and continue to participate in the community.

These programs are aimed to help you to stay active, healthy and connected to others in the community.
