The good ol’ days

How Acquaint can bring your most cherished memories back to life

They say don’t look back in anger. Nostalgia, on the other hand, we’ll allow.

After all, you’ve lived a full life and collected many stories along the way. Most of which were inspired by the unique trends and themes of times gone by.

But who’s to say they can’t come back around? Here at Acquaint, we’ll help you turn back the clock and relive all your favourite memories – from all your favourite eras.

The glitz and glam of the 1950s’ Golden Age

Ahh, yes. We remember it like it was yesterday: standing outside the picture theatre, breathing in the buttery smell of popcorn, ready to see the latest from Marilyn Monroe, James Dean or Audrey Hepburn. Those were the days!

But they don’t have to remain a sign of the times. Because when you’re going steady with Acquaint, you can once again don your poodle skirt or letterman jacket and head to your nearest classic cinema for a screening of an all-time great.

The peace of the 1960s’ Summer of Love

On a summer’s Sunday morning in the 60s, what else was there to do other than head to the park with your friends to soak up some sun? Picnic blanket, fruit, guitar and tie-died accessories in tow.

And the same is true for a Sunday morning in 2024! So, if it’s the essence of the Swinging Sixties you’re after, that’s what you’ll get.

Whether it be down at the beach or at your local farmers’ market, your Acquaint carer will ensure you stay connected to your environment and community.

The groovy galore of the 1970s’ Disco Era

Did you really think Saturday Night Fever could only be caught in the 70s? Don’t be daft, darling.

While our dear Melbourne may not feature a Studio 54, we still have the works of Donna Summer and the Bee Gees right at our fingertips – thanks to the internet (and your prized vinyl collection).

So call your friends over to your place. Acquaint will take care of the rest – firing up the turntable, hanging up the disco ball and making sure everyone catches a nasty case of boogie fever.

The burn of the 1980s’ Dancercise Craze

In the wise words of Olivia Newton-John, ‘Let’s get physical!’ Because it doesn’t need to be the 80s to slip into your leotard and legwarmers.

With Acquaint, you can maintain a fun, energetic and safe fitness routine to keep you feeling well – today! So get into the groove, feel the burn, twist and shout and all the rest of it. You’re more than capable.

Our private at-home aged care service goes beyond traditional offerings. Our passionate care team is here to help you live life your way. So if you need someone to look after you or a loved one – or reminisce about the good ol’ days with, get in touch today.
