The Care Army is about bringing Queenslanders together to lend a hand to seniors and people most at-risk during this pandemic, while continuing to practice physical distancing techniques.
We want to hear from Queenslanders about what is happening in communities throughout the state and identify gaps in information. People’s local communities are becoming more important.
The Queensland Government has established a Taskforce comprised of Government, the Community Sector and eminent Queenslanders to oversee support for Queensland seniors during the COVID-19 Pandemic.
Libraries provide a safe and comfortable space for older women to spend time; either alone or with family, friends and peers; or through participation in programs and activities. Libraries support older women by connecting them to the community or bringing the community to them.
The Strategy's vision is 'older people in the Brisbane south region experience a greater quality of life through safe connected and coordinated person-centred care in an age-friendly community.
