Over 30 people attended the Whitsunday Neighbourhood Centre’s Be Connected Mini Seniors Expo on Friday 18 October.
The Whitsunday Neighbourhood Centre offers an ongoing Be Connected program and last year hosted a morning tea to over 50’s and seniors. At the morning tea they provided the attendees with education on digital literacy, and it was well received.
Due to the success, this year the Whitsunday Neighbourhood Centre partnered with more services to provide a Mini Expo for seniors.
Executive Officer at Whitsunday Neighbourhood Centre Rebecca Woods said it was an important event.
“It was obvious to us that we were able to and had the opportunity to have access to a wide range of services for seniors that complement what we offer,” said Rebecca.
“I think it's important for the seniors in our community to have a have a voice and have an opportunity to look at the services that are on offer in our community in a friendly, relaxed, informal way.
“My team were able to get 15 services here today to showcase their services and their offerings in the community.
“Hopefully, in doing so, seniors are more connected to these services.
“They gain the knowledge and the information about the best ways they can support themselves, so that they remain active, healthy, well-connected seniors.”
