Seniors’ Stories

This latest collection of stories come from an ongoing writing competition aimed at celebrating the lives and contributions of seniors, and gives them an opportunity to share their own short stories about their life experiences.

NSW Seniors Card introduced the Seniors' Stories writing competition in 2013 as a way of recognising and valuing the experiences of NSW seniors and building connections between the young and old.

For each edition the top 100 stories are selected and published by NSW Seniors Card and distributed to the authors and libraries across the state.

These stories illustrate the substantial contributions made by older people and emphasise the need to ensure seniors are afforded ongoing opportunities to participate in our community and impart their knowledge and wisdom to younger generations.
