Council, Victoria Police and Neighbourhood Watch, with the help of community members and organisations, worked together to better understand the experiences of Seniors who live independently in Baw Baw Shire.
Commonwealth Home Support Program is jointly funded by the Australian Government Department of Social Services and Local Government and is for people aged over 65 (or over 50 for Indigenous Australians).
This year the Victorian Seniors Festival will be brought straight to your home through online performances, zoom interviews and story-telling.
VHC is a Department of Veteran Affairs (DVA) program that supports veterans and war widows with low care needs to remain in their own homes.
Baw Baw Shire provides a range of In-home and centre based programs for frail aged and people with a disability to assist them to live at home and to access the community.
There are many supports for people with a disability to assist them to get around safely.
Service User feedback is a vital component of how Council monitors the success of our Aged and Disability service provision including Home and Community Care (HACC).
