PEOPLE are encouraged to attend the upcoming Ageing Persons Information Expo at Barham next month.
It’s a one-stop event designed to provide older community members, their families, and carers with valuable information on the many support services available in the region.
It will be held at Barham School of Arts Hall, Murray Street, on Thursday, March 6, from 9.30am. Coordinated by Murray Haven Homes, Murrumbidgee Local Health Advisory Committee (LHAC) and Murray River Council, the expo will bring together a range of service providers and organisations, covering everything from health and wellbeing and aged care services to legal advice and home assistance programs.
Attendees will have the opportunity to speak directly with experts, gain insights into support options, and discover ways to stay connected and active within the community.
Council manager of community services Leanne Orr encouraged locals to attend.
“The expo is about empowering our older residents with the information they need to make informed decisions about their health, lifestyle, and care options,” she said.
“Whether you’re looking for in-home care services, social groups, or advice on staying independent, you’ll find it all under one roof.”
The event is free, with light refreshments also available.
