The social calendar in Tweed just got busier with the NSW Seniors Festival Grants Program providing opportunities for local seniors to get active and stay connected.

Member for Tweed Geoff Provest said Tweed Aboriginal Co-operative Society Limited successfully acquired a $1000 grant for a Tweed Elders Gathering as part of the NSW Seniors Festival 2021

“This grant is an opportunity for older people in our area to get out into the community and be social, happy and active,” Mr Provest said.

“Seniors in our region lead the way as role models, carers and volunteers. We want to see them continue to be active participants and valued for their contribution.”

Successful recipients will hold local programs and activities during the NSW Seniors Festival, which runs 13-24 April 2021. Learn more about the NSW Seniors Festival at: www.seniorsfestival.nsw.gov.au
