SENIORS CENTRES

Wow! I can’t believe that it is October already. So much to do and so little time is the general consensus I’m getting at the Para Hills Seniors Centre. There is always something happening at the Centre and I encourage you to drop by and try one of our programs if you haven’t already.

Feeling like you need support to understand and find suitable aged care services? Do you need help to keep as independent as possible? Every Tuesday between 10am to 1pm, Margo, who is an Aged Care Navigator Project Officer, will be able to answer your questions and help you get a better understanding about how to access and find services you may be eligible for. If you would like more information, or are interested in attending any of the above events, please ring the Para Hills Seniors Centre on 8406 8544, or call in and collect a program. More information is also available from page 24.

October:

Friday 7 October – the Public Advocate will be speaking about their role and how they can be of assistance to you. The Office of the Public Advocate promotes the rights and interests of people who need assistance with decision making. They give information, resolve disputes, advocate, investigate, and act as guardian of last resort. Thursday 20 October – FREE Come ‘n’ try Line Dancing. Join us for an afternoon tea while watching a demonstration on Line Dancing. Sit back and watch or join in. Line Dancing is great for your coordination, improves fitness levels and is a lot of fun.
