HEALTHY ageing, future planning and end-of-life options will be explored at a free community expo held at the Laurieton United Services Club (LUSC) on Tuesday, 10 June.
The expo, titled “Ageing Well Expo: Health, Happiness & Future Planning!”, is being hosted by Simplicity Funerals, LUSC, and News Of The Area.
Running from 10am to 2pm, the event will explore topics related to health, lifestyle, and future planning, with a focus on providing expert advice, practical resources and community connections.
“We’re proud to be hosting the upcoming Ageing Well Expo,” said Simplicity Funerals’ Michelle Freeman.
“This is a free event designed to support and celebrate our older community members.
“We have over 30 local support services, community groups, and businesses involved, providing a fantastic opportunity for people to connect, learn and discover what’s available right here in our region.”
While some of the content is similar to that of previous “Dying to Know Day” events, this expo has been expanded to adopt a more holistic approach towards ageing.
“Although the Ageing Well Expo replaces our Dying to Know Day, Simplicity Funerals will continue to host a dedicated end-of-life education event later in the year, offering a safe and informative space for exploring important topics related to this phase of life,” Michelle said.
Further details regarding this event will be announced in the coming months.
