It’s a modern-day reality, more New Zealanders are working well beyond 65.

In 2013, 22% of adults aged 65+ were employed. By the 2023 Census, that had risen to 24%. For many, it’s about purpose and staying active. For others, it’s financial necessity.

Our latest issue of New Zealand’s Best explores this shift in “Experience Counts: Seniors Shaping Our Workforce.” We look at the valuable contributions older New Zealanders continue to make, and share professional insights from Seniors at Work.

This story caught my eye. How agile is he?

This reminds me of my grandmother who set the dance floor on fire with the 20 year olds by out lasting most of them at age 85.

Do you have a story to share about your loved one and what they have done?

Some days we remember everything.
Some days, we forget why we walked into the room.
Either way… It’s still our life, and it still matters.

There’s something special about older photos.
They remind us where we’ve been, and who we’ve loved.

🌺 Lest We Forget 🌺

Today, we pause to honour the brave men and women who served — and continue to serve — in our armed forces. ANZAC Day is a time for remembrance, reflection, and deep gratitude.

At Senior Moments, we stand with you in remembering the sacrifices made by our ANZACs. Whether you’re wearing a poppy, attending a dawn service, or quietly reflecting at home, we send our love and respect to all who’ve served, and to the families who supported them.

🕯️ "At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember them."

Feel free to share your memories, photos, or stories in the comments below — together, we keep their legacy alive. ❤️
