Bethanie Beachside wins Best Presented at LiveLighter Aged Care Games

on Tuesday, September 27, 2016

Bethanie, one of Western Australia’s most well known not-for-profit aged care and retirement living providers has taken out ‘Best Presented Team’ at the LiveLighter Aged Care Games held at HBF Arena, Joondalup.

The representatives from Bethanie Beachside donned their loudest Hawaiian shirts, beach hats and tropical leis as they set off to compete against a number of other aged care providers through adapted games including seated hockey, bean bag toss and skittles.

99 year old Bethanie Beachside resident Ted Gilchrist just missed out on taking out the title of this year’s oldest participant, with another competitor joining the Games at 100 years old.

Bethanie Beachside Facility Manager, Louisa Chadwick said the residents look forward to participating in the Games each year and have already begun planning next year’s outfit theme. 

“The LiveLighter Aged Care Games provide our residents with the opportunity to do something a bit different and socialise with many other seniors from all over Perth,” said Louisa.

“From the dressing up to the light competition, there’s no doubt the residents from Bethanie Beachside have a fantastic day out every year.”
