Our Theory of Change

Our Purpose

90%

of Australians believe
ageism exists

 23%

of young Australians are unemployed or underemployed

110,000

direct aged-care workers are needed within the next decade to meet demand

Lively is a unique not-for-profit with a mission to transform aged care through intergenerational connection.


We train big-hearted young Helpers to provide personalised support for older adults to stay connected, active and creative. With relationships built on equality and mutual learning across generations, our approach sees both Helpers and elders contribute to and benefit from each other's experiences and knowledge.
We envision a world where older adults can thrive and meaningfully participate in their communities, while young people get the leg up as they need as they start out in their lives.


By cultivating a new network of intergenerational friendships, Lively is creating a society where both younger and older people feel valued, connected, and supported.”
