New Zealand's ageing population

Richard Herbert from Tawa Probus Club

At the July meeting of Tawa Probus Club we had a very interesting talk from the Hon Tracey Martin as Minister of Seniors, whose roll is to promote the wellbeing of older people, and to create awareness of the opportunities and challenges of New Zealand's ageing population.

There is a Consultation currently open for submissions until 24 August on the development of a strategy to prepare for an ageing population. Further information about the consultation and related discussion paper can be found here www.superseniors.msd.govt.nz...

We also heard from Ric Godenho who provided an update on progress with the Tawa MenzShed and proposed open day being planned for later in the year.
