Connecting Seniors and Carers Program

Connecting Seniors and Carers Program

Connecting Seniors and Carers Program helps older people and carers find the support, services and community connections they need to stay active and independent. Delivered by CareWays in the Illawarra and Shoalhaven region, the program offers information, advice, needs assessment, referrals and short-term support to help people navigate changes in life and access the right services.

This program can support healthy ageing by reducing social isolation, building confidence and helping people stay connected with their local community. Participants can learn about available services, join community activities and get help accessing supports such as My Aged Care and other wellbeing services. Carers can also receive guidance and support in their caring role.

Whether you are looking for information, extra support, or ways to become more involved in your community, the Connecting Seniors and Carers Program provides a friendly starting point. By helping people stay informed, connected and engaged, the program supports social, emotional and mental wellbeing while promoting independence and quality of life.
