Meals on Wheels Australia National Conference 2020

Published on September 18, 2019

WHEN: Wednesday 19 February through to Friday 21 February 2020

WHERE: Country Club, Launceston

THEME: ‘2020, A Vision for the Future’

Everything is nearly lined up for the 2020 National Conference! This includes an invite to the Federal Minister for Ageing and Senior Australians to open our Meals on Wheels National Conference, which was presented to him last week!

The 2020 National Conference provides a wonderful opportunity to connect and engage with a wide range of leaders and volunteers from right across
Australia, representing over 590 services and 76,000 volunteers, in a first of its kind repositioned conference which will be held right here in Tasmania!

The conference will bring together previous state conferences and will
provide a place to share innovation, best practice, challenges, reform
updates and engage with communities passionate about supporting older people to age well in their homes.

Registrations open at the end of August. For more information, please
contact the State Office, or visit https://mealsonwheels.org.au/meals-on-wheels-conference/
