Local senior citizens shouldn’t miss the Campbelltown Community Aged Care Expo on Friday week.
The free expo will feature a range of local organisations showcasing services and support available to older members of the community.
These include home care, residential aged care, health and wellbeing, mobility, assistive technology and other services that can help people maintain their independence.
The expo is being organized by the Aged Care Events Community (ACEC).
“We organise free, community-focused expos, bringing older members of the community, their families and carers together with local aged care providers, health professionals and support services, all under one roof,’’ says an ACEC spokesperson.
“Our events are designed to make it easier for people to discover the services and support available to them, ask questions, gather information and connect directly with organisations that can support them as they age.
“We believe that everyone should have the opportunity to make informed decisions about their care, health and wellbeing, while maintaining their independence and feeling connected to their local community.
“We are delighted to be bringing our Campbelltown Community Aged Care Expo to the local community, providing an opportunity for older residents, their families and carers to connect with a range of aged care providers, health professionals and support organisations.’’
Another feature of the expo will be a dedicated Quiet Hour from 12pm-1pm.
“This provides an opportunity for attendees to explore the event in a calmer environment, speak with exhibitors and gather information at their own pace, with fewer crowds and reduced noise,’’ the spokesperson said.
“We also offer free coffee for the first 200 attendees!’’
