Exhibitors sought for Seniors Month expo

Fraser Coast businesses, community organisations, sporting groups, and government agencies interested in exhibiting or presenting at the Over 50’s Lifestyle Expo during Seniors Month are encouraged to register their interest now.

Fraser Coast Regional Council Seniors Liaison Officer Juls De Waard said this year marks 21 years since the Over 50’s Lifestyle Expo began, and it continues to be one of the highlights of Seniors Month in October.

“Seniors Month is all about bringing people together and uniting them through shared interests and passions,” she said.

“Council is committed to creating connected, inclusive communities through our places, spaces and people, and we want our seniors to be confident, active and engaged.

“Seniors Month provides opportunities to promote positive community attitudes towards older people and ageing while encouraging community participation and connections.”

Ms De Waard said the expo continued to attract a variety of exhibitors to share information about their services and products.

“Whether it be travel products, health and fitness programs, legal services, accommodation options, mobility aids or opportunities to have fun and make friends, there is always plenty to see and do at the Over 50’s Lifestyle Expo,” she said.

This year’s Over 50’s Lifestyle Expo will be held at the Hervey Bay Baptist Church in Nikenbah on Friday 4 October between 9am and 2pm.

It will have a party theme, and attendees will be given a key to open the door to the next phase of their lives.

Businesses, community organisations, sporting groups and government agencies who would like to either exhibit or do a demonstration on the day are encouraged to contact Ms De Waard on 4194 2441 to register their interest and make a booking.
