As stated by Seniors and Ageing Minister Mick Murray:
“Have a Go Day gets bigger and better every year, always offering a wide range of community activities and social outlets for older Western Australians to explore.
“There have never been more social and recreational options available to older people than there are today – with Have a Go Day providing the ideal one-stop shop to try what’s on offer out in our communities.
“Nobody embodies the spirit of Have a Go Day quite as strongly as Seniors Recreation Council President Hugh Rogers – and I commend him and his team for once again putting on this terrific event.”
