The first day of Queensland Seniors Week, Saturday 15 August, is being dubbed ‘a Day of Solidarity between Generations’, especially fitting given the need for us to remain connected and look out for each other.
We have seen what change is possible when bureaucratic barriers are removed, shared wellbeing is valued above perceived differences, and a spirit of collaboration is encouraged.
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.
