WICKLOW ACTIVE
RETIREMENT ASSOCIATION
Wicklow ARA are a self-directed association of older people of Wicklow Town and
surrounding area who meet to enjoy their mature years by organising a regular
programme of activities, including indoor and outdoor exercise and sports;
holidays, outings and socials; creative and learning opportunities, and much more.
Active Retirement is about independence and self-reliance. The philosophy is
one of self-help. As such, Wicklow are true to the idea of organising activities
themselves for themselves; they do things rather than have things done for them.
Everyone in WARA shares intellectual or manual skills and knowledge with their
fellow members. The work of Wicklow ARA was showcased on RTÉ’s Winning
Streak.
