Description

Readers - Books and Conversation with Dr Norman Swan
Thursday 29th October | 8pm | Petersham Bowling Club

Join us for a special Readers Books & Conversation event with Dr Norman Swan as he discusses his compelling new book, The Brain Cliff.

One of Australia's most trusted medical voices, Dr Swan has spent decades translating complex health research into practical, evidence-based advice. In The Brain Cliff, he turns his attention to one of our greatest fears: losing our mental sharpness as we age.

Many of us assume cognitive decline is inevitable, but Dr Swan argues we've been thinking about brain ageing all wrong. Drawing on the latest science and interviews with remarkable cognitive super-agers in their nineties and beyond, he explores what really helps our brains remain resilient, adaptable and healthy throughout life.

From memory and concentration to dementia prevention and lifelong cognitive health, this fascinating conversation will challenge common assumptions about ageing and offer a hopeful, practical roadmap for maintaining brain function well into later life.

Don't miss the opportunity to hear from one of Australia's leading health communicators in an enlightening discussion about how we can all keep our brains healthier for longer.

Located at the heart of Sydney’s Inner West, the PBC is one of the oldest bowling clubs in Australia. We have been part of the Inner West since 1896.

In the years past the club had struggled to survive, culminating in several attempts to redevelop some or all of the club grounds. The local community successfully campaigned against all these proposals and in late 2006 and the club began a new era with the appointment of a community-based Board.

The PBC is now an award-winning and vibrant pokie-free club that is dynamic and creative. It provides our diverse community with a multi-purpose facility offering sports, the arts, fun, music and food whilst protecting the use of the open space for the next 110 years.

All bookings must be accompanied by a member or become a member upon booking confirmation. You can renew an existing membership or start a new one here.

The Petersham Bowling Club is not wheelchair accessible yet. We have plans to remedy this in the next 3 years. Entry to the club is via 12 stairs at the front of the venue. once inside it is all 1 level and we have an ambulant & wheelchair accessible toilet.

By entering the PBC, you are agreeing to our Code of Conduct.
