If you’re isolated and you’re facing additional barriers it’s harder for you to find and access services and supports to help you age well.
Even vulnerable older people who have been re-housed into appropriate affordable accommodation after facing homelessness, may need ongoing support to help them get back on their feet.
We work with disadvantaged and isolated older people who need more help accessing the housing, health and wellbeing services that help them combat disadvantage. We also advocate on behalf of disadvantaged groups to make those services accessible and right for them.
We can provide specialist and intensive assistance to help isolated older people understand, navigate and access aged care and connect with other relevant supports in the community.
We connect vulnerable older people to local service providers for essential care, health, and other community services so they can age well and safely. Find out how to apply here.
Age Matters is working with governments, service providers and researchers to design models that empower vulnerable seniors to regain independence and connect to their communities.
We have close relationships with organisations directly combating disadvantage and improving outcomes for older people at a grassroots level.
We also have a referral network of trusted providers for our clients. We want to do more than put a roof over people’s heads. We want to help them actively participate, improve their health and be part of a community.
