Seniors Exercise Equipment – Andrew Pocket Park

Group image older people at NARI exercise park

Nillumbik Shire Council has partnered with the National Ageing Research Institute (NARI) to create age-friendly outdoor spaces specifically designed for older people to use and enjoy.

The seniors exercise equipment is a great initiative to get older adults exercising in the fresh air. 

The park features a range of outdoor equipment designed for older people to help improve:  

  • balance
  • strength
  • functional movement
  • joint range of motion
  • mobility.

'Come and Try' sessions

'Come & Try' sessions are held twice a week, on Wednesday and Friday from 10am - 11am.

These sessions are for the general public to drop in and ‘come and try’ the equipment and be guided by trained volunteers.  

Once you are confidant in using the equipment, these sessions also provide an opportunity to do your workout with others and socialise with peers. 

Sessions will not run on public holidays or in extremely wet, windy or hot weather.
