THE Ageing Well Expo hosted at the Laurieton United Services Club (LUSC) on Tuesday, 10 June was an overwhelming success, focusing on the topics of health, lifestyle, and future planning.
“Our community came together to explore, learn, and connect, with over 30 local businesses, support groups, and community services on hand to showcase the many ways we can all live healthier, happier lives,” said organiser Michelle Freeman.
“The event welcomed a fantastic turnout of locals throughout the day – browsing stalls, attending presentations, and gathering helpful tips for mind, body, wellbeing, and planning for the future.”
From yoga and meditation to aged care services, mobility aids, legal advice, nutrition, end of life planning, and more – there was something for everyone.
“A huge thank you goes to all the exhibitors who gave their time and expertise, to the volunteers who helped things run smoothly, and most importantly to all those who came along on the day,” Michelle said.
“The atmosphere was friendly, supportive, and buzzing with positive energy – a true testament to the strength of our local community.”
Michelle also thanked the event’s major sponsors – Simplicity Funerals and News Of The Area – whose support helped make this event possible.
Following positive feedback from attendees, organisers have announced that the Ageing Well, Living Well & End of Life Planning Expo will return in June 2026.
“We look forward to building an even bigger and better event, with new stalls, fresh ideas, and more opportunities to support one another in living our best lives,” Michelle said.
“Keep an eye on News Of The Area, our Facebook page, and community noticeboards for more details early next year.
“And if your business or group would like to be involved in the next expo, we’d love to hear from you.”
