Charingfield Aged Care Community in Waverley recently introduced a unique monthly activity that’s proving very popular with residents and staff. Resident, Derek, one of the co-founders of not-for-profit charity, Cycling Without Age, suggested Charingfield residents might enjoy this amazing community service. And they certainly did as they were carefully whisked away for fun rides around Centennial Park in specially designed trishaw e-bicycles.
