Information day to help support elderly community 

Older residents are invited to information days to help them maintain their health and independence. 

The event, which is spread over two days - in the north of the Island is highlighting the support available for the elderly and their families and carers. 

A range of agencies are being brought together -  including the Department of Health and Social Care, charities, local government and private businesses. 

The days are there to help older people maintain their health and wellbeing as well as to connect them with the support they need to help them live independently.
