Did you know that your brain can continue to form new connections throughout your life?
This amazing ability, known as neuroplasticity, means it's never too late to learn new skills, build healthy habits, and keep your mind engaged.
Join us at Ryde Library for a relaxed, interactive workshop designed especially for older adults, where we'll explore how the brain works, how it changes with age, and what you can do to support lifelong brain health. We'll discuss memory, attention, and emotional well-being, while sharing practical, science-backed strategies to help keep your mind active and resilient.
Whether you're curious about why we forget names, interested in improving concentration, or simply want to learn more about healthy ageing, this friendly session will provide valuable insights, useful tips, and opportunities for discussion with others.
Fun Brain Fact: Your brain contains around 86 billion neurons, all working together to help you think, learn, remember, and experience the world around you!
Come along to discover how small everyday actions can make a big difference to your brain health and mental wellbeing.
This Inspiring Australia NSW initiative is supported by the Australian Government as part of National Science Week.
