This research was commissioned by the Federation of nine Councils on the Ageing (COTA) across Australia – including all eight COTA state and territory organisations and COTA Australia – in order to understand the views, life experiences and needs of Australians aged 50+.
The new National COVID Older Persons Information hotline will help older Australians get the critical information they need to stay healthy and safe during the pandemic.
If you are part of a group that would like information about home fire safety this summer, email kereer@cotatas.org.au to arrange a free COTA Tasmania peer education session. ABC Local Radio stations around the country broadcast information about bushfire movements and threats in their areas.
If you were unable to visit the Ageing May Way exhibition in Hobart earlier this month, all is not lost. We've made the display panels available online.
