NT Government

8 April 2023

Senior Territorians are a valued and respected part of our community and the Territory Labor Government is recognising older Territorians and active ageing through the Seniors Month Grant program.

The 2023 Seniors Month Grant round is open for organisations and businesses to apply for up to $2,000 in funding to support an event or activity for senior Territorians during Seniors Month.

An annual month-long celebration held in August each year, Seniors Month provides an opportunity for seniors to celebrate positive aspects of ageing and for all Territorians to recognise the contribution that Territory seniors make to our communities.

Activities can range from come-and-try or information sessions, to fitness classes, reading groups, inter-generational activities and more.

This is a competitive grant round prioritising innovative events that support older people to have a healthy lifestyle, become involved in a new activity or connect to the community.

Seniors Month aims to offer activities and opportunities demonstrating that senior years can be a time of learning and adventure.

Seniors Month Grants 2023 are open until 23 April 2023.
