Rotorua residents over the age of 50 are invited to a public meeting to learn about Positive Ageing Rotorua and consider putting their names forward for this forum.
The public meeting is to be held on Thursday August 11 at Rotorua Lakes Council.
People now have the chance to provide an independent voice for the seniors of Rotorua through Positive Ageing Rotorua.
The initiative to strengthen participation by seniors in council decision-making began 12 months ago, with a diverse group of 10 members, established as part of the People Portfolio.
The public meeting will give enthusiastic residents over the age of 50 the chance to meet current members, learn more about what Positive Ageing does for Rotorua and apply for a position.
