Expressions of interest called for Seniors Festival

Wingecarribee Shire

Wingecarribee Shire Council is calling for expressions of interest from community groups, businesses and organisations interested in hosting an event during the 2022 NSW Seniors Festival.

The festival will run from 25 March to 3 April 2022.

Council’s Director Corporate Strategy and Resourcing, Carmel Foster, explained the importance of the festival for our Shire’s seniors.

“It provides an opportunity for seniors to develop new skills, meet people with similar interests and find out how they can get involved with other events throughout the year.”

Each year Council coordinates the festival with a program of events focusing on keeping seniors healthy, active and social. The program features a range of community and Council-led events.

“This year’s theme is Reconnect and we’re looking for community-led activities that help connect us,” said Ms Foster.

“Whether it’s an in-person, virtual, or hybrid event, we want to hear from people and organisations interested in participating.”

Expressions of interest must be received by 4 pm on Friday 19 November 2021.

To apply, visit www.wsc.nsw.gov.au/seniors or contact Wingecarribee Shire Council on 4868 0888.

Wingecarribee Shire’s 2022 Seniors Festival program of events is expected to launch early next year.
