Health, Connection and Expert Insights
27 March 2026 | Free Event | RSVP Essential
Cumberland View Retirement Village Wheelers Hill is hosting a special Wellness Open Day on Friday, 27 March from 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm. This free event brings together expert health advice, hands-on wellness experiences, and the chance to explore our village community—all whilst enjoying delicious, nourishing food.
Looking after yourself well in retirement means more than just staying active—it’s about understanding how small, practical changes can support your independence, energy and overall wellbeing for years to come.
Why Attend Our Wheelers Hill Wellness Event?
This isn’t your typical retirement village open day. We’ve designed this afternoon around what matters most: your health, your independence, and your connection to others.
Whether you’re actively exploring retirement living options in Melbourne’s south-east, or simply want to learn evidence-based strategies for feeling your best, you’ll leave with practical knowledge you can use straight away.
Featured Speaker: Dr Avi Charlton
GP and wellness author Dr Avi Charlton will share her expertise on nutrition and lifestyle approaches that truly make a difference as we age.
Dr Charlton, author of Prescribing Lifestyle and Low Carb Made Easy, focuses on achievable changes rather than overwhelming overhauls. Her presentation centres on practical strategies that support your energy, mobility and confidence—backed by evidence, not trends.
You’ll discover how simple adjustments to what you eat and how you move can have measurable impacts on how you feel day to day.
