At Ungooroo, we acknowledge and celebrate the incredible contribution our Elders make to community life every day.
This year's theme - "Older Persons Driving Local and Global Action: Our Aspirations, Our Well-Being, Our Rights" - is a powerful reminder of the strength, wisdom and leadership our Elders continue to offer. We honour the guidance they give to younger generations, the knowledge they carry, and the cultural foundations they've laid for us all.
Through our Elder Care Support Program, we're committed to standing alongside our Elders, supporting their well-being, and making sure they can access culturally safe aged care services and know their rights.
