International Day of Older Persons
Today (1 October) marks the 30th Anniversary of the International Day of Older Persons.
It's a day to celebrate our senior community members for their continued positive impact across Mitchell Shire. COVID-19 has made it challenging to remain connected, especially for seniors who have been the most isolated. The day is a great reminder to reach out to an older person in your world and let them know how much they are appreciated.
2020 Victorian Seniors' Festival reimagined
Another fun celebration of our senior community is the 2020 Victorian Seniors' Festival.
This year’s festival is a little different as the organisers recognise physical distancing is important to keep everyone safe right now. So, the entertainment will be delivered through pre-recorded performances and interviews, radio programs and local online events until the end of October.
Visit the website to enjoy the festival in the comfort from home. Or tune into Seymour FM (103.9) each weekday between 10am-11am to listen to Victorian Seniors' Festival Radio.
