Programme Overview
They say, ‘getting old is not for the elderly’.
The Never2old programme is designed for the young at heart. It is a health and wellness programme running in many YMCA centres, structured to give senior citizens back their independence, educate them on healthy living and enrich their lives through fitness and wellbeing exercises.
The Never2old initiative focuses on keeping its members (aged 60-89) fit and healthy, helping them train for adventure camps, and teaching exercises to strengthen the body for practical applications such as lifting grandchildren or taking heavy items off shelves.
Not only is the body a serious focus, but the holistic and social atmosphere of never2old is a strong one, as the group is tight-knit and cares deeply about one another.
