One of the highlights in July was the visit of the local MP Jackson Taylor. He was joined by Heather McTaggart, the manager of the Basin Community House, and Sally Clark from Knox City Council. Together, they met with our Retirement Village. They introduced the Basin Community House which is a local non-for-profit organisation that offers a variety of services. Jackson has also briefly introduced Knox U3A (University of the Third Age) who is also running courses by and for senior citizen. Finally, Sally talked about services that the Knox City Council offers to senior citizen.
Our ILUs had the chance to ask Jackson, Heather and Sally some questions and talk to them during morning tea. There was also plenty of information material to take away. All in all, it was a very informative and pleasant morning.
