Brimbank seniors and carers expo

Brimbank council is inviting the community to the Brimbank seniors and carers expo 2024 to discover the resources available to support a healthy and active lifestyle for seniors and carers in Brimbank.

The free event is aimed at helping local seniors and carers learn about available services to support healthy and active aging.

This year’s expo will be held on Monday, June 3, from 9.30-2.30pm, at the Keilor Basketball and Netball Stadium in Keilor Park.

Keilor Life Activities president and Brimbank Active Seniors group member Joan Ellis said she is “blessed” to live in the Brimbank municipality where there are services and supports to live and age well.

“The expo is a great opportunity to bring relevant supports together under the one roof to support seniors and carers within Brimbank,” she said.

The expo will feature 60 exhibitors covering a wide range of topics, including aids and equipment, advocacy, Brimbank council services, commonwealth home support and home care package providers, financial and legal assistance, health and safety, learning and technology, and social and leisure activities.

Attendees can look forward to a series of free talks, activities, and information sessions. Complimentary coffee, tea, light refreshments, and free giveaways will also be available. No bookings are required for this event.

For any questions or to discuss transport or access requirements, email CommunitySupport@brimbank.vic.gov.au or call 9249 4000.
