NSW new Aging strategy - HAVE YOUR SAY!

 NSW Whole of Government Ageing Strategy:

The number of older people in NSW is projected to grow significantly in coming years, and this will have profound implications across our whole community.  To address this, the NSW Government is developing a Whole of Government Ageing Strategy and is inviting members of our community to contribute their ideas on planning for our ageing population. This will ensure that the NSW Whole of Government Ageing Strategy best meets the needs of our community.
