Community Participation

This service is perfect for you if…

We will be there for you whether you want someone to accompany you to appointments, a companion to share your hobbies and interests, or even dog walking and shopping. We want to boost your health, well being and quality of life. People who are active socially may have fewer memory problems than those who are often alone.

It can be very hard for those who are isolated in the Gippsland community after losing a partner or becoming mobility impaired to go on errands, outings or to social events. We provide a carer to be an elbow to lean on, to help you visit family and friends, to engage within your local community no matter where you are throughout Gippsland.

How can community participation help me?

As you age, it’s important you remain connected to the things that matter to you and continue to feel you are a valued member of your community. We plan activity groups through social and leisure activities and outings, allowing you to mix with other people with similar interests and hobbies.
