In response to the 2022 – 2023 Queensland State Budget released 21 June 2022, COTA Queensland takes an initial look at what this means for Older Queenslanders.
The mental health and wellbeing of senior Australians is a priority during this time. There are a range of supports available if you, or one of your clients, are feeling isolated, worried or need someone to talk to.
The Older Persons Action Group has recommended delivering a mental health awareness event to increase community awareness of, and engagement in, mental health and wellbeing and promote help seeking behaviour.
