**What does a typical day look like for someone in your team? We asked one of Creative Lifestyle Facilitators and this is what they said**:

- “Usually very busy Saying hello to the aged care residents and colleagues, delivering newspapers, running an exercise class, reading stories, playing a concert, and word games of some sort.

Oh, and laughing - a lot whenever possible”, Ceri, Kingston Qld._
