What We Offer

Staying connected, at every stage of life

Our programs help Jewish seniors stay connected to community, culture and Jewish life through regular visits, care packages, social activities, intergenerational experiences, celebrations and pastoral care.
Smiles Hub
A Regular Catch-Up

Smiles Hub Afternoon Tea

There’s always something happening at Smiles Hub! Our regular Afternoon Teas bring seniors together for friendship, entertainment, activities and plenty of good conversation, with a different program to enjoy each time. Come along and see what’s on!

Shabbat Hug Programmes

Care Packages & Packing Bees

Our Packing Bees bring the community together to prepare thoughtful care packages for seniors, turning a simple act of giving into a joyful shared experience. Come pack with us, meet new people of all ages and experience the sense of belonging that comes from working together. 

Home Visitation

Grand-Friend Programmes

Sometimes the greatest good is simply showing up. Through our Grand-Friend Program, volunteers build genuine one-on-one connections with seniors through regular visits, conversation and companionship, giving our elders the time, care and respect they deserve.

Supported by the Aged Care Volunteer Visitors Scheme (ACVVS).

Ages 12–18

Intergenerational Programmes

This is where generations meet, stories travel and community comes alive. Our intergenerational programs bring children and young people together with seniors to share traditions, stories, skills and experiences, strengthening wellbeing and social connection while keeping our community identity alive across generations.

Everyday Support

Shabbat & Pastoral Care

No one should feel disconnected from community, particularly at the moments that matter. Our Shabbat and pastoral care programs bring warmth, tradition and connection to seniors through visits, Jewish celebrations and moments of care throughout the year.
