COTA Champions are volunteers of COTA who seek opinions from and listen to the needs and issues of older Tasmanians in their local community.  This information is then provided back to COTA.

A COTA Champion is interested in upholding the rights and interests of older people, has good links with their local community and can assist COTA in consulting with older people in their community.

The COTA Champion initiative currently exists in the southern municipalities of Huon Valley, Southern Midlands, Hobart and Kingborough.
