WELCOME to the 2020 edition of South West Victoria Seniors.

There's been much to be thankful for this year, and it's usually the small things that have brought the greatest joy; a wave from a neighbour, a phone call from a son or daughter you haven't heard from in a while, or just someone leaving your paper inside your front door out of the rain.

They are the day to day interactions we have with others, and sometimes, if you're shut in or lonely, they can become to mean a great deal.

In this edition of South West Victoria Seniors there's advice on how to seek help if you're feeling isolated and information on local services you might find useful.

You'll also find stories on the joys of becoming a grandparent, the benefits of moving to a retirement village, plus how to alleviate the symptoms of hay fever naturally.

There's also a quiz where you can discover what type of Warrnambool adventurer you are.
