How do we show appreciation for our Seniors? They offer us different perspectives, knowledge and skills, and we do our best by assisting them to live independently and for longer in the Upper Clutha. It is important that our seniors feel part of the community. Community Networks Wanaka has recently started a Companionship Service; pairing interested Seniors with other community members for social visits. As our town is far away from certain medical services, we help facilitate access to Dunstan Hospital and connecting on to Dunedin Hospital through Wheels to Dunstan transport service. We also act as a hub for visiting government services, and we can accept Work and Income (including superannuation)
forms, often saving a trip to Queenstown or Alexandra.
When driving around town is no longer an option, we can help with access to Total Mobility, subsidised taxi vouchers. We value connecting people both with each other and with tools that can help connect to distant family and services. Through IT training specifically for Seniors, we help them use technology that can make life easier (hopefully!). We value our Seniors as important contributors within our community. If you would like any further information about any of the above services, please visit Community Networks Wanaka at 73 Brownston Street, make contact with us on 443 7799 or visit our website www.communitynetworks.co.nz
