The link between older people’s personal wellbeing and their involvement in social activities and problem-solving will be examined by a Charles Sturt University (CSU) researcher in coming months. Occupational therapy lecturer with the School of Community Health, Ms Thérèse Schmid, will commence her research in February and seeks participants aged 65 to 74 years from Albury and Wodonga. “I will be documenting how participants use problem-solving in social activities, and how this affects their sense of wellbeing,” said Ms Schmid, who is looking for volunteers to take part in the research for two hours a week for 12 weeks. Volunteers may be accompanied by a friend. The research will be based at Aged Concern in Townsend Street, Albury. People wanting to participate in the research should contact Ms Schmid on 6023 3971.
