Join a Like-Minded Social Group
The Ballarat Golden Gal's is a welcoming social group designed for women over 50 years old. The group meets every Monday morning in a relaxed and safe environment, providing an opportunity for connection and friendship among members of the community.
Modelled on the Chatty Cafe concept, the Ballarat Golden Gal's offers a space where everyone can feel comfortable, whether you’re attending alone, with a friend, or if you’re a carer who would like to bring along the person you care for.
