World Elder Abuse Day Forum – Eltham Library

June 21, 2019 @ 1:30 pm - 2:30 pm

Free

We all want to be treated well and treated with respect no matter where we are in life. Sometimes as we get older, we experience disrespectful behaviour from people we know and trust. When this happens it’s important to know that there is help and support available.

World Elder Abuse Awareness Day (WEAAD) occurs on 15th June each year. It’s an opportunity to reinforce that as people age, they have the right to live in dignity and with respect.

Come along to a free forum (afternoon tea provided) for an interactive discussion with a speaker from Seniors Rights Victoria. Seniors Rights Victoria is a free service that assists people over 60 years of age and who live in Victoria.

Bookings essential for catering purposes, visit https://weaad-eltham.eventbrite.com.au.
