Everybody needs a helping hand from time to time, and getting older shouldn’t mean losing your independence or quality of life. There are local services available to help you when and how you need it, based right here in the Snowy Monaro.

With so many different support programs from so many different government agencies, it can be really tricky to know where to start, how to find what services are available, and what you’re eligible for.

These sessions will give you and your family the information you need to know about accessing these vital support services in our region.

If you can’t make it to the upcoming dates, our community services team are available by phone, email, or in-person to help.

Call 1300 345 345 or email council@smrc.nsw.gov.au to speak with the team today, or to book a time to come and speak with us in person.
