Seniors and carers expo coming to Wyndham

Wyndham council is inviting all seniors and carers to attend the 2025 Wyndham Seniors & Carers Expo on Tuesday, October 7.

This free drop-in event will take place at Encore Events Centre in Hoppers Crossing, offering a comprehensive, one-stop shop for everything from aged care services to health and well-being programs.

Mayor Mia Shaw said this year’s expo aims to create a vibrant and supportive environment where attendees can discover a wide range of services, hear from industry experts, and connect with local providers.

“This expo is an important initiative that empowers seniors and their carers with knowledge and practical support,” Cr Shaw said.

“We hope to make it easier for our community members to access the services that can help them live happier, healthier lives.”

“Whether you are a senior, a carer, or a family member, the expo is the perfect opportunity to explore services and opportunities in the region to enhance quality of life.”

Some of the highlights of the event will include advice on maintaining physical health, access to respite support services for those looking after elderly family members, and a variety of workshops.

Attendees will be introduced to local support networks and have the chance to interact with local organisations and services dedicated to helping seniors and carers in the Wyndham area.

For those considering the move to an aged care facility, information on home care packages, residential care options, and government services for seniors will be available on the day.
