The team at COTA Tasmania is moving to work from home from Tuesday 24 March. We are making this move to support our community effort to manage the impact of the coronavirus (COVID-19). You can still contact us and we are keen to hear from you! We will still be contactable at admin@cotatas.org.au.

It's Seniors Week 2022 - our 12th year promoting connection and activities across the state.

Tasmania has the oldest population in the country, with around 20 per cent of Tasmanian residents aged 65 or over. Despite this, there is currently no tailored mental health response for older Tasmanians.

Around 60 people joined us at Penguin Surf Life Saving Club yesterday to launch this year's week of activities promoting connection and activity for Tasmania's seniors.

COTA Tasmania and Mental Health Families and Friends Tasmania have collaborated to raise awareness of the role that senior Tasmanians play supporting a family member or friends mental wellbeing.
