World Elder Abuse Awareness Day

Office for Seniors

Most elder abuse is hidden in plain sight. Abusers are often someone close – a family member, a caregiver, someone trusted. If you’re concerned about how someone is being treated, it’s OK to get help. #ItsOKtoHelp #WEAAD

Meet Ivy, who is looking for a new home.
"Hi there my name is Ivy and I am looking for my forever home. I am a super smart dog so would love a home that is keen on taking me to obedience classes and furthering my training. This is help me become the best companion I know I can be and this also provides me with enrichment. My new home would need to have someone around for most or parts of the day as I am not used to being left alone for long periods. I would love a home with kids that are confident around dogs as I can be a bit bouncy when interacting with people. My new home could have a dog, one that is social and is happy to share their home and people with me. I have yet to be cat tested. I do come with a medical waiver my home family would need to be made aware of. If you think I am the home for you click apply to see if we are a match."

"This is a photo of my five year-old retired greyhound Bella in her favourite position on the couch. I have had Bella for three years and she is my second adopted (not rescued) greyhound. Before her I had Harley for 9 years. Greyhounds are perfect pets: they are affectionate, don’t smell, are very relaxed and need very little exercise. They are not called couch potatoes for nothing!"

Hi Neighbours
Does any one have any spare or offcut underfloor insulation material to sell or give away? We are renting out our own house but have been told by the property manager that the storage of laundry room on level one need add insulation to be compliance with the new tendency law....i dont think it is actually a subfloor at all as it is the floor between level one and two. Its only around 2 square metre and hardly any professional installer will be interested in the job so we plan to do it ourselves but have difficulty in getting the insulation material. We prefer polyester blanket (mammoth or greenstuff) to match the rest of the house. Any help or advise?
