Fun and Friendship in Retirement
Probus provides retirees with the opportunity to connect socially, which is so important in today’s world.
After you retire, those friendships that are developed through working life are often lost. Probus is a great way to develop new friendships. To quote a recent Probus Club member “The day I joined my Probus Club, I instantly had 100 new friends”.
Membership is open to anyone who is retired or semi-retired, so if you live on the Northside of Brisbane, why not contact us and discover the wonderful world of Probus.
