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.
A new COVID-19 hotline (FREECALL 1800 171 86) will help older Australians get the critical information they need to stay healthy and safe during the pandemic, providing an accessible one-stop source for personal support, questions and up-to-date guidelines.
