October Speaker
|
Our October speaker was Councillor Sophie Torney, Mayor of Boroondara Council. Underlining the presentation was the emphasis that Council is about Community and Transparency with the encouragement to observe council meetings and don’t hold back on contacting your ward councillor on matters important to you. Her address then focused on providing a macro awareness of significant resources available to senior residents and the avenues of access. So much to absorb, however these services are covered in more detail in several council publications and in particular: How to access Council’s aged care services. |
Question time did open up a number of issues outside the subject matter and the clear direction was contact your councillor, he/she is your voice to Council.
All in all it was a very enjoyable performance and we appreciated her taking the time to talk to our club.
