Care dished up

03/05/2008

HOME and community care services will be highlighted at the International Day of Older Persons Gateways to Services Expo 2005 on Friday, 30 September.
The expo at the Casey Civic Centre will provide information about services and activities available to older Casey residents, including home and community care services, carer respite services and Centrelink services.
Casey director of community services Jennie Lee said the expo would help older residents, especially those from culturally and linguistically diverse communities, gain knowledge about a number of community services and how to access them. More information is available from Karen Upston 9705 5200.
