Active Retirees Magazine
March 2026 Issue

The Active Retirees magazine is issued quarterly to over 43,000 subscribers.

In this issue, explore our feature story on the kickoff of the 50th Anniversary celebrations of Probus in Australia. Discover how clubs nationwide are commemorating this significant milestone year.

As autumn arrives, we share practical insights into understanding digital wallets and how “tap and go” payments work, helping you feel more confident with everyday technology. We also explore the importance of protein after 60 and how maintaining muscle strength supports an active, capable lifestyle.

Our regular features include the Chairman’s Message and Club news from around the country.
