We value what older women have to offer
OWNQ promotes a vibrant, positive approach to ageing. We value what older women have to offer. With years of life skills, experience, and learning, older women are vital knowledge holders. Their contributions to advancing gender equality have shaped a better society. Always the first to lend a hand, they actively support family and community needs. Open to personal growth, they embrace new beginnings and challenges with enthusiasm. We are proud to see this spirit reflected in our branches.
