Small details can add up to more than we realise.

This Cyber Security Week, take a moment to consider what you share online. Information about your birthday, family, pets, routines or favourite places can help scammers build a surprisingly detailed picture of you.

Watch this reel from Own Your Online for a helpful reminder to pause before you post.

🎬 FREE MOVIE TICKETS – FIRST COME, FIRST SERVED!
We have tickets to give away to CALLE MÁLAGA (Malaga Street), coming to selected New Zealand cinemas from 15 October.
Brimming with nostalgia, humour and hope, the film stars legendary actor Carmen Maura in a sun-kissed love letter to Tangier and to those who age with heart.
When an older woman finds the life she knows under threat, she refuses to simply be sidelined. CALLE MÁLAGA is a story of independence, resilience and creative resistance – and an Audience Award winner at the Venice Film Festival.
Thanks to Potential Films, we have:
🎟️ 2 complimentary double passes
🎟️ 3 Buy One Get One Free passes
And we're keeping this giveaway very simple! Follow the Age Concern Auckland page and come into our Avondale office to claim a pass. First come, first served – once they're gone, they're gone.

💜 Older people aren’t just part of our communities. They help make them stronger.
This International Day of Older Persons, we’re celebrating older people staying active, connected and making a meaningful contribution to their communities.
Our Community Safety Ambassador initiative brings older people together to build confidence, increase visibility in their neighbourhoods and help create safer, more connected communities.
With support from the Whau Local Board and New Zealand Police, it’s also an opportunity to get out and about, connect with others and play an active role in community life.
A great example of active ageing in action. 💜

💜 What does ageing well look like?
Sometimes it looks as simple as coming together, sharing a laugh, learning something new and knowing there are people who are pleased to see you.
For International Day of Older Persons, we’re celebrating the connections that help make longer lives healthy, meaningful and fulfilling.
Our Wesley Friendship Group is one example of older people coming together regularly for friendship, conversation, activities and connection with their community.
As we celebrate The Age of Longevity, this video is a lovely reminder that living longer is about more than adding years to life. It’s about having opportunities to stay connected, involved and valued throughout those years.

Getting out into our communities and sharing how we can help 💜
We recently had the pleasure of visiting Women Care Trust in Papatoetoe to introduce Age Concern Auckland and share more about the support, services and opportunities available to older people across Auckland.
Community conversations like these are a valuable way to help people understand what support is available, how to access it, and how Age Concern Auckland can help older people and their families when they need us.
Thank you to the wonderful group at Women Care Trust for welcoming us and taking the time to learn more about what we do.

💜 Building stronger connections for older people across Auckland
Yesterday, we were delighted to welcome the team from TOA Pacific to our Avondale office for morning tea and a chance to share ideas.
It was a valuable opportunity to learn more about each other’s work, talk about the different ways we support older people, and explore where we can collaborate more closely.
TOA Pacific does important work supporting Pacific elders, families and communities, and we really appreciated the chance to hear more about their culturally grounded approach.
Partnerships like these help us build stronger, more connected support networks for older people across Tāmaki Makaurau.
A big thank you to the TOA Pacific team for spending the morning with us. We look forward to continuing the kōrero. 💜

☕ Friendship grows one conversation at a time.
It was wonderful to see our Glenfield Coffee Group enjoying another morning of conversation, laughter and connection over a cuppa.
These regular gatherings are about much more than coffee. They provide a welcoming space where friendships grow, people stay socially connected, and everyone knows they'll be greeted with a friendly smile.
Creating opportunities for older people to stay connected is at the heart of what we do, and it's always a pleasure to see our community come together.

September is World Alzheimer's Month.
Understanding dementia begins with conversation.
Around 70% of people living with dementia have Alzheimer's disease, making it the most common form of dementia. Greater awareness can help people recognise the signs earlier, seek support sooner, and better understand the experiences of family members, friends and neighbours living with dementia.
At Age Concern Auckland, we know that staying socially connected, remaining active, and having supportive communities all play an important role in helping people live well for longer.
As Alzheimer's Month comes to a close, let's continue to learn, talk openly, and help create communities where people living with dementia feel understood, included and supported.

We've written to New Zealand's elected representatives with an open invitation.
Every day, our team works alongside older people across Auckland, seeing both the challenges they face and the positive difference that community support can make.
Our CEO, Kevin Lamb, has written an open letter inviting Members of Parliament and party spokespersons from across Parliament to visit Age Concern Auckland in Avondale. We want to share what we're hearing from older people, what we're seeing on the frontline, and learn more about each party's priorities for supporting older New Zealanders.
We believe good public policy is strengthened when decision-makers have opportunities to hear directly from the communities and organisations working on the frontline.
Age Concern Auckland is a non-partisan organisation. We welcome the opportunity to engage constructively with representatives from across Parliament in the interests of older people.
