What does the next chapter of retirement look like - it's not the end of your story—it’s the start of a whole new exciting chapter. At BlueCare Retirement Villages, we know today’s retirees are redefining what it means to be ‘elderly.’ They’re active, engaged, and passionate about living life to the fullest. That’s why our new campaign, Start Your Next Chapter at BlueCare, focuses on real stories from our residents—people who are embracing retirement on their own terms. Meet Margaret, a resident at Fraser Shores in Hervey Bay (we’ve nicknamed her Gangster Granny) an absolutely powerhouse within her community – in her words “you cant get bored here - anyone who say’s their bored – they’ve got rocks in their head”. Margaret’s story, like so many others in our communities, shows that retirement isn’t about slowing down—it’s about choosing how you want to live. Watch Margaret's story here: https://lnkd.in/gP28HJjm A huge thank you to the team at Creative Outpost for creating the concept and bringing these incredible stories to life. Your work has truly captured the spirit of what makes BlueCare communities so special. We’re so excited to share more stories like this across TV, radio, and social media in the coming months. Stay tuned as we continue to showcase the incredible people who call BlueCare home! #StartYourNextChapter #BlueCareRetirementLiving #RetirementRedefined #CreativeOutpost #ProudToBeBlueCare Natalie Smith Sara Laborde Susie Arthur Christopher Winters UnitingCare Queensland Carla Steadman Jeremy Bews

💙Empowering independence at home with BlueCare 🏡 Yesterday, we had the pleasure of hosting a fantastic community event at Carina Leagues Club, where locals came together to learn about the many ways they can access support to stay independent at home for longer. With a strong turnout and engaging conversations, it was inspiring to see so many people exploring their options and taking proactive steps toward ageing well in their own homes. Events like this allow us to connect directly with the community and ensure they have the information they need to make informed choices. A huge thank you to everyone who attended and to our dedicated team who made this event possible!
